I need to know when did they convert from a ub92 to a ub04 what year
There are several form locators in the UB-04 form commonly used to indicate different types of information, such as the patient's demographic information, provider information, and details of the services provided.
The 1st digit of 8 indicates a special facility or hospital ASC surgery, the 2nd digit of 3 refers to ambulatory surgery center and the last digit indicates a first interim claim
It is very difficult. You have to call your billings department from your hospital and the physician billings department and obtain UB04 or 1500 forms for the correct dates of service. Then you have to mail them to Liberty National and wait to see if they will refund you the money. Depending on your policy, you may be entitled to days in the hospital, radiation and chemotherapy. Make sure your hospital breaks down day by day on the UB04 forms. Meaning if you had 5 days of chemo in a row, you want it laid out that way so that they have to pay you for those individual days and not as one treatment. They will sell you the policy, but not help you obtain any of the forms needed to get the money back from your policy. I am starting a business from home to help cancer patients with these policies. If you would like my help, please contact me at shandavison@yahoo.com. I will only charge a small fee to help you obtain these documents, etc. My daughter has cancer and I have been doing this for the past 2 years. I would love to help anyone in this situation.
The UB-92 claim form is used for billing purposes by hospitals and facilities. Physician charges are billed on the CMS1500 form. UB92 claim forms were updated and are now referred to as the UB04 form. It is a paper claim form printed with special OCR paper and OCR ink so scanners are able to read what's printed on them to make processing claims faster. You can purchase these claim forms less expensively online or you may be able to find them locally at Office Supply stores for quite a bit more.
