Electronic Claim Submission for Hospice Services
Electronic claims for hospice services must be submitted using the 837I (837 Health Care Claim: Institutional) transaction.
Electronic claims for hospice services submitted using any transaction other than the 837I will be denied.
Providers should use the companion guide for the 837I transaction when submitting these claims.
Provider Electronic Solutions Software
The DMS (Division of Medicaid Services) offers electronic billing software at no cost to providers. The PES (Provider Electronic
Solutions) software allows providers to submit electronic claims using an 837 transaction. To obtain PES software, providers may
download it from the ForwardHealth Portal. For assistance installing and using PES software, providers may call the EDI
(Electronic Data Interchange) Helpdesk.
