Claim Modifiers Library

The Claim Modifiers library can be used by practices when the modifier usage differs from payer to payer. During charge posting, add units to a charge when a specific modifier is entered on the charge for specific SIM types. During the billing process, add a modifier to the claim if the modifier was not entered on the charge. During the billing process, remove a modifier from the claim if the modifier was entered on the charge. Note: For a claim modifier to be applied, the charge service date must fall within the effective date and expiration date defined for the modifier, and the charge must meet all Modifier Change for Claims criteria defined for the modifier. The practice-level default Claim Modifiers library selected in Practice Preferences > Libraries is used for all payers.

Claim Edits Library

Claim edits are a set of conditions that must be (or are suggested to be) met when you generate a claim. For example, is the patient's zip code required in the claim? Must the referring physician's first name appear on the claim? These are the kinds of requirements you can set up to control the information that appears in the claims you generate. The Claim Edits Libraries enable you to select the claim edits to run when billing encounters and generating claims. A default Claim Edits Library must be created and attached at the Practice Preferences level before you can bill encounters and generate claims. After, a default library is created and attached at the Practice Preferences level, you can then create payer-specific Claim Edits Libraries and attach them at the Payer Master level. These payer-specific claim edits libraries override the default Claim Edits Library. The application maintains a list of available claim edits in the Claim Edits Library, which you can access within File M
