Hi,
   I haven't had this particular situation before but it sounds like an occurrence or value code would not be appropriate.  I'm not sure what you mean by exclude each payer from each claim.  What form are you using to submit the claims?

Thanks
Michele

Hi Michelle,

I bill all medicare claims on ub04 and all medicaid waiver claims on a 1500.
What I meant by exclude is to not have either MCR AS SECONDARY ON MY 1500
OR MCD AS SECONDARY ON MY UB04.
I hope that clarifies what I meant.
