Service Highlights

A secure Internet site gives you information about all of your DME claims. Login with your unique user ID and password, and then work any claims that are being held for additional information such as CMNs and facility information.

• Rental Claims - Rental claims are entered into the system once, and then are automatically billed monthly or according to capped rental logic where applicable.
• Secondary Claims - Secondary claims that do not crossover can be automatically sent to the secondary payor once remittance information and patient IDs have been updated.
• Rejections - Rejections from either the front end of the payor or your 835 show up in a queue with additional tips on how to fix the errors. Once fixed, these claims are resent to the payor electronically.
• Reconciliation - Reconciliation of your DME claims is automatic when an 835 is received electronically. Manual payments can also be easily applied for a full accounting of these claims.
