How are national provider identifier (NPI) numbers reported on hospice claims?
HCA has implemented a change in the process for reporting the nursing facility
NPI number on a hospice claim for a client in a nursing facility.
Use the following claim forms to report the nursing facility NPI:
837 Institutional and institutional Direct Data Entry (DDE) – service facility
NPI information:
• For the HIPAA 837 Institutional claim type the Service Facility NPI field is
located within Loop 2310E, data element NM109.
• For the institutional DDE claim screen, the Service Facility NPI field is listed
on the Other Claim Info tab at the top of the claim form. On the Other Claim
page open the Miscellaneous Claim expander and enter the NPI number in
the Service Facility box.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
