Insurance Company General Settings

Review General Settings

1. Find the insurance company then click the insurance name to open. The General tab of the Edit Insurance Company window opens by default.
2. Review the following information and make any appropriate changes for the insurance company.
   1. Name and Address: The name and address for the insurance company.
      Note: The insurance company address is informational only and not used for claims submission. The payer address where claims should be sent is entered in the insurance plan.
   2. Contact section (optional): The insurance company's contact name and phone/fax number(s).
   3. Claim Processing section:
      • Insurance Program: Click the drop-down arrow to select the insurance program code for this payer.
      • Default Adjustment: If applicable, click the drop-down arrow to select the adjustment code to auto-populate when manually posting a payment received from this payer.
   4. "Automatically bills secondary insurance": Applicable for insurance companies that automatically cross over claims to the secondary insurance (e.g., Medicare). Click to enable or disable as necessary.
      Note: When enabled and a balance transfers from this payer to the secondary payer, this option automatically sets the secondary claim status to Billed (as it was crossed over from this payer) and is not submitted through Tebra.
