Rejection Resolution:

Follow the instructions below to specify a claim filing indicator where Medicare is selected as a secondary insurance:
  • Go to Patient>Select Patient>Insurance>Select Medicare.
  • Medicare should be setup as a secondary insurance in order to see the option for "Insurance Type Code (S)".
  • Whenever Medicare is secondary you will need to select "Other liability insurance is primary".
  • Sometimes another claim filing indicator is required but this can vary by patient.
