Export Code Qualifier

Some Payers must include an Export Code Qualifier on 837I and 837P claim forms so that the Provider can successfully bill and adjudicate claims.

To accomplish this, Payers can use the Export Qualifier field for Home Health Service Codes in the Add Service Code and Edit Service Code pages in Reference Table Management.
