In order to Submit Electronic Claims, ensure the following:
- Must be connected to Apex Clearinghouse.
- Your Client's Insurance Billing Information is setup.
- Client Progress Note for Appointments MUST have a Diagnosis Code in the Note.
- An Invoice is created for the Appointment. You can only generate Claims from Invoices.
There are three steps to Submit Electronic Claim:
- Create the Invoice.
-
Add the Invoice to Awaiting Submission - The Invoice becomes a Claim and sits in the Awaiting Submission queue.
- While your Claims are Awaiting Submission, you can perform a general Claim scrub. Claims can be checked for common errors such as Date of Birth, Gender, Address, Diagnostic Code, etc. If a Claim has no errors can be submitted to Apex.
- Claim is submitted to Apex. It is checked again for errors. All Submitted Claims are sent to Apex each business day at 4:30p CST.
