Claim Manager

DuxWare Claim Manager

The DuxWare Claim Manager is where pending claims reside to be submitted to the respective payers either via Electronic or Paper submission.
The user may also:

• Retrieve and view previously submitted batches
  
• Mark previously filed batches back to pending
  
• Submit claims by provider, location, etc.
  
• Review claims pending by payer, held by payer, pending by batch, or held by batch
  

To access the Claim Manager, select Claim Manager from the Claims tab as illustrated below:

Once you have selected Claim Manager, you will land in the Claim Manager with the Summary Tab highlighted in yellow as illustrated below:

At this point, you have the option to select the appropriate 837 Setup to gather your electronic claims, print Claim Forms, or review claims that are:

• Pending by Payer
• Held by Payer
• Pending by Batch
• Held by Batch
• Select the Flag to the right of the Summary Tab to retrieve previous batches

We do ask that you call into our Customer Support Department to assist with configuring the ANSI Setups for your clearinghouse.

Gathering and Submitting Claims Electronically

Access the Claim Manager as illustrated above.

Select the appropriate 837 Setup. For this example, we will choose ANSI 837 5010P. This type setup is used for Professional claims such as would be
billed from a physician's office.

Once the 837 ANSI Setup is selected, you will land at the following screen, and a list of your open claims will populate the screen as illustrated below.
If you would like to see claim details, select the Expand button. Select Collapse button to collapse the claims. The Action button will give the options to:

• Create Batch
• Mark as Held
• Mark as Manual
• Close the Action window

In our example, there are 4 claims under the Error Claims tab that were separated from the open claims. You have the option to view the Error claims and resolve errors before you submit claims to the clearinghouse, or you can submit the Open claims now and correct the errors at a later time. As you resolve errors on claims, they will automatically move to under the Open Claims tab once you regather your claims under the ANSI setup.

You should see a file on your desktop similar to the claims.837 file illustrated above. If you don't find the claims.837 or claims.txt on your desktop,
check your downloads in your Firefox web browser. If downloads are not configured to download to your desktop, you can go to the Firefox menu, select
Tools/Options/General/Save files to Desktop. You will need to browse and pick your desktop.

You are now ready to log into your clearinghouse and upload your claims file. Your claim submission file will either have a file extension of .837 or .txt.

Mark Claims Back to Pending or Take other Actions with a Submission File

For instance, you may have submitted a test file to your respective clearinghouse. The clearinghouse may ask you to resubmit your submission file
in a new submission file. To accomplish that task, you would need to be able to Mark your previous submission back to Pending status.

Below are illustrations to help you through the process.

Once you have completed the process of Marking your claims back to Pending status, you can regather them by going back through the claims setup in your
Claim Manager. This will ensure that you capture all corrections that you may have made to claims that you will resubmit to the clearinghouse.

Resolving Error Claims in the Claim Manager

If you have any claims that have errors, they will be in the Error Claims Tab of your Claim Manager.
Select the Error Claims to view the claims with Errors.
Select Expand button to see the error(s) in the red bar at the top of the claim.

You can select Edit Claim to make changes without leaving the Claim Manager.
As you resolve your errors, they will be moved to the Open Claims tab upon refreshing your screen.

Held Claims

These are Claims that you have put on hold. They are waiting for you to put them back to Pending or to Mark as Manual
because you don't need to send them to the Payer or the Clearinghouse.

Manual Claims

Claims that you are not sending electronically – or at all.
