sending eob's to secondary insurance.
Sending EOB's to secondary insurance: If there is a service that is an add on code such as 90785, when the EOB's come back to MCP from the primary insurance for the 90785 that was add on to the 90837 session you cant send them to the secondary insurance together as one claim, you have to send one code and then the other because of the way MCP is set up. We get rejections from secondary payers because the add on code comes in separate instead of with the session it belongs with.

Yes, I put in same request under different tab. Same problem for Office visit and Add-on psychotherapy (such as 99213 and 90833). To electronically send claim to secondary insurance, MCP forces you to bill each separately. However, to process correctly both codes need to be on same claim.
