Review the chart below and complete the missing information so that you can have complete data to compare for the EDI 835 file processing review. A base level 3 (99283) charge is $1900.If you do not know how to use Excel, consider the BATC courses. Schedule time to discuss how to do this during my office hours so that you get the help you need to be successful.

Explanation of Payments/Benefits (EOPs/EOBs), also known as Electronic Remittance Advices (ERAs) when received through a clearinghouse, come across as an 835ANSI file, and are not always clean. Many factors of this file have to be correct (Patient Name, ID, Billed Charges, Allowed/Adjusted amounts, DOS, and a few other items), but sometimes you will see that the patient's responsibility does not match the listed deductibles, CIs and CPs. This assignment took an example of how data can be incomplete, or incorrect, and how a healthcare professional would need to provide data so that informatics has complete data to review against their HL7 interfaces.
Billed Charges = Allowed Charges + Adjusted (Contractual Agreements) Charges
Allowed Charges = Insurance Payment + Patient Responsibility
Patient Responsibility = Ded + CI + CP
PR can never be more than allowed charges. Watching the video that was recently added to Module 5 will show you how/ where data has transferred over incorrectly or inaccurately for the purpose of an EOP.
