Move/Rebuild Transmission File

With the Move/Rebuild Transmission File function you can create the actual electronic files to send to the insurance carriers. Claims enter the electronic file through either the Create Insurance File function, the Refile Insurance Claims function or the Deny Insurance Claims function.

Each time you perform the Move/Rebuild Transmission File function, CGM webPRACTICE recreates the file and checks each claim for errors in the data. If it finds invalid or inaccurate data, the claim is moved to the Exception Report. It also picks up any modified information from charges that were edited using the Edit Transmission File or the Edit a Transaction functions. If these modified charges were in the exception file, and they now pass the edit checks, they will be removed from the exception file. If new charges have been recently added to the electronic file, these charges will be included in your file totals. You can run the Move and Rebuild function as many times as necessary. Although, after claims have been sent, you cannot perform this function again until the following day.

Upon accessing this function, the transmission file is automatically moved and rebuilt. A screen displays indicating that the function is in process.

When CGM webPRACTICE has finished recompiling the transmission and exception files, a screen displays indicating that the function is complete.

If you have already sent claims for the day, the message states that the function cannot be performed.

After the Move/Rebuild Transmission File function has been completed, Print the Exception Report, if indicated, to correct any further exceptions or Print the Transmission File.
