Thanks for this wonderful forum.

In new ANSI 5010 setup, we need to enter Facility address both in block # 32 & 33 and because of this many secondary insurance are sending their payment to hospitals instead of Providers.

Please guide me how to solve this.

Hi Regina,

As per 5010 Update, we are suppose to use the same facility address in block # 32 & 33. We are not supposed to use our correspondence address (Billing Address) in Block # 33.

Only if the address is a PO box, perhaps that's the problem?

If it's not a PO Box, I'm at a loss at what could be problem and I would contact your clearinghouse first.
