New Medicare Front End Reports start today

Dear DMEFree / RxDME2000 Clearinghouse provider;
 
Medicare and Cedi are getting ready for the January 30th conversion from the 'old' DMAC front end reports to the 'new' Cedi Gen Report.
 
I have attached the current copy of the Cedi reports manual to this email, it is also available at;
During phase I the DMACs were sending back their front reports with the CCN# (claim control number).  During phase II (Jan 30th) it will be Cedi's responsibility to do the front end editing and issuing the CCN#.  If a claim has a CCN# , then it goes to Medicare for adjudication.
 
Cedi didn't have a software program to separate the hundred's of individual reports returned to us in one file.  That is the job of this clearinghouse, We  wanted to retain the report format to match the Cedi manual, with one exception.  
At the end of every report is a "glossary" of the errors with full explanation.  Our reason for doing this is to save you time and avoid the nightmare of having to understand what loops and segments are.
 
If you have any questions regarding these new reports send us an email support@dmefree.com
 

Thank you
