Blacking out other patient's names on Medicare R/A's

They do not block out the info entirely.  I copy them after I black them out.  However, I didn't know we could use correction tape or white out?

Ditto with Linda.  I only attach if I'm submitting a denial or exclusion that the secondary should cover but they need to see the MCR eob.  They should know the remark codes but I don't rely on it.

A lot of people use Sharpies but when the Sharpie ink dries you can read through it.  If you use a Sharpie you should either re-photocopy after you black out the names, or Sharpie the back side too.  That eliminates the problem.  :)  We don't black out the names, we cover them when photocopying.  With ERAs we can simply print out only the patient we want which eliminates the need for blocking or blacking out.

PMRNC:
I have Black Out, I use it for a lot of things, it's good for using when you want to toss old bills in the mail and black out stuff that could be used for identity theft.   I think I got mine from Office Depot, it came with refills too.

Thanks on the Black Out info....
