We hope that these upgraded Tips & Tricks videos will become a valuable resource, and show you in-depth ways to use your NueMD system.

If you have a question about your system that you would like answered, please contact us at marketing@nuesoft.com with the subject line “Tips & Tricks”. We would love to get video of you asking the question and include it in our videos.

Sean: Hi. I’m Sean Ogawa- a senior product manager here at Nuesoft Technologies. As most of you are aware, January first marked the start for all electronic claims to be submitted in the new ANSI 5010 format. The new standard contains an estimated eight hundred changes over the original version. This government mandated switch affects all providers, health plans, clearing houses and billing agents.

To help smooth the transition, we’d like to share with you the top tips for setting up your NueMD system for ANSI 5010. We’ll review key areas where you can set up your software to continue transmitting claims without rejection.

Follow along to make sure you completed all these steps:

Put NPIs in the right spot in Practice Setup. If needed, call payers and see if providers are registered as Individuals or a Group, then verify the NPI on file is correct. Confirm NPIs are correct in Practice Setup and fix if needed: Individual NPIs go under Care Providers. Group NPIs go under Billing Groups.

Choose the MSP Insurance Type when Medicare is the secondary payer: From the main menu, click Patient. Pick the target patient, then click Insurance. Pick the target Medicare policy, then choose the right MSP Insurance Type. Save when done. 

Only enter assigned IDs in Medical Facilities: From the main menu, click Practice Setup, Medical Facilities. Pick the target facility. Leave FDA No. blank, unless you were assigned a number showing you can perform certain diagnosis tests. Leave Medicare ID, Medicaid ID and BCBS ID blank, unless you were assigned a certification number for these payers. Save when done.

We hope this helps you keep your claims filing cleanly during this transition period. If you do have any issues contact your Nuesoft support department. Thank you.
