Payer Space: Medica

Medica is a fairly complex payer because of the large number of plan types compared to other payers. To manage the billing differences between these payers, in HCHB there are various Medica payers set up.

Plan types are differentiated by the group number or ID prefix, which can be found on the insurance eligibility run. Follow the table below to select the correct plan type.

It is very important to set up a client's payer in their chart under the correct Medica plan type. Failing to set up the correct payer will result the insurance denying our claim for payment.

🎯PLAN TYPES

Identify the correct Medica plan type by group number or ID prefix:

Use the group number or ID prefix listed on the insurance eligibility page to identify the type of plan. Click a plan name to jump to that specific section.
