Error Message

Service Unit Count: Required, Must be entered for service line revenue code.

Description

This error appears as a rejection in the Electronic Module. It is specific to institutional inpatient claims where Treatment and Room and Board codes are sent together. Some payers require that the Treatment code be sent with standard units (coded as UN on the x12) and Room and Board codes be submitted with day units (DA).

Resolution

1. Go to the Payers Module.
2. Double-click the payer line you need to work with.
3. Click the Rates tab.
4. Click on the Codes sub-tab.
5. In the Code column, use the picklist   to select the appropriate treatment code (if the code is not already entered here).

6. Enter 0.00 into the Rate/Units column for the treatment code (unless this is where you have your codes and rates entered, in which case leave the rate as is).
7. To the far right in the Units column, select Units.

   This column only appears in certain payers. If you do not see a Units column for the payer you’ve received this claim rejection for, please contact Procentive's Support Desk.

8.  Click Add if adding the code.
9. Click Save.
