Referral Source Provider Number Table
By using the Referral Source Provider Number Table, you can store insurance carrier specific provider numbers for each referral source.
The Referral Source Provider Number Table provides the following functions for maintaining referral source provider numbers:
NOTE: You should not store the referral source's UPIN or NPI numbers in this table; those numbers are contained in the Referral Source Table. The only time an entry is needed in this table is if an insurance carrier requests the referring physician's provider number or Tax I.D. to print on the insurance form instead of the UPIN. If an entry is found in this table, the provider number entered for that referral source and insurance carrier will print in Box 17a of the HCFA form (or its electronic equivalent).
NOTE: When you create insurance claims, CGM webPRACTICE looks at the tables in the following order to get the Referring Doctor provider number or UPIN number.
1. Tables, Referral Source Table, Provider Number Table, Maintain Provider Numbers - Provider Number.
2. Tables, Referral Source Table, Maintain Referral Sources - UPIN Number.
3. Tables, Doctor Code Table, Maintain Doctor Codes - UPIN Number, if the Referral Source for the claim is '0'.
