UB Sub-Tab

• Select a practice location.
• For multiple location practices, the Location field must be populated before any of the fields on the UB tab are enabled.
• For single location practices, the Location field does not display and all of the fields on the UB tab are automatically enabled.

• If the field is left blank, the name that defaults to Field Locator 1 on the UB claim depends on how the provider for this claim is set up for billing.
  • If the provider is set up in a group, then the group name on the Group Information window displays on the UB claim form.
  • If the provider is not set up in a group, then the provider name on the Modify Provider Information window displays on the UB claim form.
• If the payer requires a name on the UB claim form that is different from what defaults from the Group Information window or the Modify Provider Information window, then use this field to enter the name that must display on the UB claim form.
• The address information that displays on the UB claim form cannot be changed. This information automatically defaults from the Group Information window or the Modify Provider Information window to the UB claim based on how the provider is set up for billing.

The ID is 13 characters long. The first 6 characters are interpreted as the client ID and the last 7 characters are interpreted as the payer ID. This payer ID overrides the enterprise-level, practice-level, payer/system-level, and payer/practice-level IDs.

If this check box is enabled, the hold date will default to the Hold Date field located on the Encounter Maintenance window on the UB tab.

The default hold date is generated by the system and is based on the last day of the month of the encounter date, plus any grace days that were set in the Grace Days field on the Service Location Information window. For example, if the last day of the month of the encounter date is June 30th and the Grace Days field is set to 3, then the hold date would be July 3rd.

If this check box is enabled, Field Locator 44 populates with the CPT4 code, Modifier 1, and Modifier 2.
