Futuristic Giga Tech Pvt Ltd: Easy Electronic and Paper Claim Submission



Paper Claim
Paper claims are difficult to track and take longer to reach the payer. If you are forced to submit multiple paper claims to an individual payer, send them certified or registered mail so that you have proof that the claims reached the payer and that somebody at that office accepted the package.
Futuristic Gigatech Pvt Ltd uses the following standards when printing PAPER Claim.
  • Use only original claim forms (the ones printed in red). The current acceptable forms are the CMS-1500 and the UB-04.
  • We make sure that the print on the claims is dark.
  • Claims scan best use at a size12 font in uppercase letters & we make sure that the information that is required in each field prints within the area of each block.
  • If need to write on the claim for any reason, we use blue or black ink. The payer processing software does not recognize red ink because the forms are red.
Electronic Claim
There are a number of advantages that electronic claims submission has to offer over traditional methods. Convenience is the first thing that comes to mind—along with increased speed that comes from not having to wait for paperwork to move through the mail system. Submitting claims electronically may allow providers to decrease administrative costs and improve cash flow.
Claims may be electronically submitted to a Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) from a provider using a computer with software that meets electronic filing requirements as established by the HIPAA claim standard and by meeting CMS requirements contained in the provider enrollment & certification category area of this web site and the EDI Enrollment page in this section of the web site. Providers that bill institutional claims are also permitted to submit claims electronically via direct data entry (DDE) screens.
Also check on these claims within a week to make sure that they have been entered into the payer processing system. When we call to follow up a paper claim, we inform the representative know that the claim was submitted on paper and the date it was sent.
