EDI Notes – New to Medisoft
There are circumstances where transaction level notes are required on your electronic claims. Use this window to manage such notes that need to be attached to individual line items. Items added to the EDI Notes List will generate additional ANSI segments in the 2300 and/or 2400 loops. Items in the EDI Notes list are specific to each line item or charge entry. You should refer to each Insurance Carrier for assistance in determining the necessity of these notes.
You can add the following segments:
- Line Note (NTE)–usually used for special instructions or notes not entered anywhere else in the claim.
- Test Results (MEA)–usually used to specify physical measurements or counts, including dimensions, tolerances, variances, and weights.
- Contract Information (CN1)–used to specify basic data about the contract or contract line item. This information is required when the submitter is contractually obligated to supply it on post-adjudicated claims. You can also enter claim-wide contract information on the EDI Note tab of the Claim window.
-
Line Supplemental Information (PWK)–used and required when attachments are sent electronically but are transmitted in another functional group rather than by paper; or required when the provider deems it necessary to identify additional information that is being held at the provider’s office and is available upon request by the payer (or appropriate entity), but the information is not being submitted with the claim.
If you would like to view or enter an EDI note for a specific transaction, highlight that transaction and click the EDI Notes button.
