probs w/v10 hcfa file
I'm trying to set up the edi receiver in v10 to use a different clearinghouse. When creating claims it defaults to several screens and ends up at Availity where I can print a verification report. I want to change the process and use a different clearinghouse. I have the edi receiver set up however when I add the program file of HCFA11.EXE, HCFA11, HCFAFILE.EXE, or HCFAFILE it throws an error message of something like ...not valid...or doesn't exsist. I even tried the CMSFILE (S) to no avail.
I have v9 running at home and no issues and have done this before on other versions. I'm currently using v15 and there I use the CMSFILE.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

HCFAFile does not format NPI numbers correctly so you kind of have to kludge the system to get it to work.
Which clearinghouse are you using? We have a report template we created for Medisoft v8 through v10. We give it away for free to our GatewayEDI customers. It might work for other clearinghouses, but your clearinghouse might require CMSFile on a newer version of Medisoft.

Re: probs w/v10 hcfa file
Thanks for the insight. I have claim processing software that will take a print image and convert it to ANSI and my software is designed to add any missing info such as NPI. I would be interested in your reports, perhaps we can use them for v10. I send to Gateway but not everything as I have a few direct sends for Oregon.
One more question...when doing a backup on v10 it always states 'disc is full'. I have never had to try a restore and not sure if it really is backing up. It appears not to be. Any ideas?
Thanks for everything!

Re: probs w/v10 hcfa file
Regarding your backups, I would guess they are all bad. Try saving your backup to a removable USB thumb drive. We also offer an automated nightly backup service for $12 per month plus $0.70/GB for storage. Just set it and leave your machine turned on. The backup will run every night to pick up changed files.
