I do have one claim that has all January dates that is paying for Blue Plus MSHO.  The NOA that was submitted is still showing in suspense, but the claim is paying correctly.  I do not have any other claims to compare to if this one is just a fluke.  I had submitted the NOA with a 1 for the project identifier with our clearinghouse.

Hello,

That is a good idea, but we should not have to be adding 02.  It is not a requirement.  02 was found online as part of a Medicare FFS project long ago.

We have a ticket in with BCBS Amerigroup. We believe it is their issue.

In the meantime, 02 is getting the NOAs into the Amerigroup system but we have not received a remit yet.

You should make Change do a bridge so you don't have to do that all the time for that payer if it's something you have to have on every claim.

Hello,

We are able to get the NOA to BCBS Amerigroup  by adding an  02 in the DEMO PROJECT ID field

 

We have not received any remits yet but the website shows the NOA as

-Pending/In Process-The claim or encounter is in the adjudication system.

-Accepted for processing

 

See the 1/31/2022 email response  from Gina

There is more info  on how we came up with Project ID 02

The error and fix does not make sense.  

We submitted a ticket also, but have not had a response.

 

Thank you

I now have both our software system involved as well as the clearinghouse. I got the following message back. It truly sounds like a foreign language to me. If anyone has any input let me know 🙂

 REF*P4 segment isn't on them for the Demonstration Project 
Identifier.  Because of that, when the claims go to the payer, the 
payer's system is immediately rejecting the claims for missing info.

Has anyone gotten any clarification on the NOA rejections for the blue plus MSHO OR gotten one accepted and 'paid'?  I've put in a support ticket, but this was their response:

·          

·        
I received the following resolution back from the payer:
"The Provider has to send a correct demonstration code when submitting the claim.
Clm| The Demonstration Project Identifier (Loop 2300, REF) is required where a demonstration project is being billed or reported."

Please add a correct demonstration code to the claim and resubmit this claim.

Thank you!

 

Does anyone know what this is or means?  Clear as mud.
