Enable Incident-To Practitioner - Registry Setting

Avatar PM > Billing > Electronic Billing > 837 Professional

'Y' enables the following:

  • 1 - enables the 'Is This An Incident-To Service' segment in the 837P bill.
    The incident-to practitioner displays when the bill is configured to report a rendering practitioner.
  • 2 - enables the 'Incident-To Practitioner' field in the Edit Service Information, Edit Service Information (Charge Fee Access), and Spreadsheet Edit Service Information forms.
    If a claim contains both incident-to, and non incident-to services, the first service in the claim will populate the Rendering Provider Name (2310B) segment.
  • 3 - modifies the following bills: 837P (Rendering Provider Name - 2310B/2420A segment), and HCFA-1500 (Rendering Provider - 24J segment):
    An incident-to practitioner can be reported for incident-to services rendered by practitioner if the category for coverage matches one or more incident-to categories for the service.

'N' disables the above fields, and disables the associated logic.
