I am sending anesthesia claims but the minutes from the NSF file
are not showing up in the claim. What should I do?

 

The use of the FA0_19 field, anesthesia or oxygen minutes, is triggered by the value in the FA0_50 field. If the value in the FA0_50 field is "2", then the FA0_19 field will be used in the ANSI 837 SV1 segment with a qualifier of "MJ" which means anesthesia minutes. The following preprocessor code will cause the FA0_50 field value to be set to "2" if the type of service field, FA0_08, value is "07" and the value in FA0_19 is not blank or zero. Place the preprocessor code in the FA0_07 field.

* preprocessor code:
* for the FA0_07 FIELD
******** start code *************
IF oFA0.FIELD08 = "07" .AND. VAL(oFA0.FIELD19) != 0
oFA0.FIELD50 = "2"
ENDIF
******* end code ****************
