Health Insurance Claim Form 1500

[Guest guest]

Hi-

 

I am wondering if anyone knows of an inexpensive piece of software

that has a 'HICFa 1500'template. Or if anyone has created a template

that they would be willing to share?

 

I know there is electronic billing software available - but it is very

expensive. I am looking for a low cost alternative to save my hand

from cramping!

 

thanks

Graham

Graham,

You can go to

http://www.cigna.com/customer_care/healthcare_professional/forms/index.html and

click on the hcfa 1500 form link. This is a fillable form but you will need

acrobat from adobe to use it. I am waiting for them to post the new CMS form

soon as things are changing. I hope this works for you. Mike W. Bowser, L Ac

Hi,

 

 

 

I've handwritten my claims for years, but in an easy way.

 

 

 

Make one original with everything filled in except for the Date of Service,

the date you sign at the bottom of the form, and the prices. Keep that

original in the chart and make 3 or 4 copies of it. On the day of

treatment, fill in the few numbers that aren't there and send it in. It

takes less than 15 seconds.

 

 

 

Some companies now, though, are requiring " typewritten " HICFs so I have a

billing person for that. I suppose eventually I'll have to join the

electronic fold and do it all that way. In the meantime, though, this has

been a cheap and easy way.

Just a few of things to be aware of...

 

1. The HCFA 1500 form has been replaced by the CMS 1500 form. While

carriers are likely to continue to accept the old forms for non-

Medicare claims in the near term, there may be a point when claims on

the old form are rejected by certain carriers.

 

2. If you are buying claims printing software, be sure to buy

software that supports both the old HCFA and new CMS formats. A

simple Google search on " CMS 1500 software " will turn up loads of

appropriate claim filler software (usually in the $50 range).

 

3. Any electronically transmitted (non-paper) claims should now use

the new HIPAA-compliant CMS 1500 format.

 

4. To be fully CMS-compliant, the forms must be printed with special

inks; printed PDF docs are not. This may not be an issue for non-

Medicare claims, but it's something to be aware of as each carrier

will establish their own claims formatting and submission requirements.

 

--Bill.
