  • Disable – NPI is off. This setting overrides the submitter profile setting.
  • Enable – NPI is on. This setting overrides the submitter profile setting. If either the payer system or practice level setting is enabled, the NPI is also enabled for the alternate payer.

The payer master file setting on the Electronic Claims tab under the System overrides the submitter profile setting for enabling the NPI.

This setting enables you to specify how many diagnosis codes can be sent electronically. You can select: <none>, 4 diagnosis codes, 8 diagnosis codes, or 12 diagnosis codes (5010 only). The 12 diagnosis codes option does not apply to dental claims.

The first four diagnosis codes are associated with the CPT4 code. Codes 5-8 are applied at the encounter level and are not attached to a charge. Codes 9-12 are for 5010 only. The diagnosis codes display on the Charge Posting window in <PM> and can be sent on the 837 electronic claim.

This setting:
  • Works independently from the Allow eight diagnoses check box in the <EHR> practice preferences.
  • When this field is blank, only four diagnosis codes can be applied to a claim.
  • Overrides the same setting in the Claims Practice Preferences. When it is blank, the Practice Preference setting is used.

When you select this option, the box to the left of dx codes is enabled so that you can enter the number (from 1 to 25) of diagnoses for the claim.
