CMS/HCFA 1500 24i by Payer

CMS/HCFA 1500 24i by Payer

For professional billing, you can set the ID Qualifier for box 24i of the CMS 1500 form by insurance payer in Settings and Directories. Group Administrators can access this by going to group level Settings and Directories, then to the Insur Payers tab. Click the name of the insurance payer to modify from the left-side menu.


You may use the dropdown box in the ID Qualifier 24i field to select the most appropriate code. Then click to  your settings.


Now when you prep your printed claim form via  the qualifier will be present in box 24i. Note this will only apply to printed CMS 1500 claims and not ANSI/electronic billing.


Tyler demonstrates the change made in ICANotes for the shaded 24i (Additional ID Qualifier) field on the CMS 1500 Form.
