Now that the gap analysis is completed on the CMS 1500 and CMS 1450 forms to
an 837, is something being done to address these gaps?  Will the forms
change, new attached forms be created in order to get this information into
systems or is each entity just dealing with these gaps on their own?  Also,
will ASPIRE be working on the UB92 forms at all?  

We allow our providers to use print images to interface into our system and
have tried to come up with several ways to address this and we're concerned
on whether or not the forms will change.  Our providers have also raised
concern that their billing management software vendors will not be able to
change their systems in time to fill these gaps.

Any other updates would be very helpful.  Thank you.

Subject:        Re: Paper Forms - CMS-1500 and UB92 What's Up

The NUCC, and later the NUBC, fostered a gap analysis of the CMS-1500 and
the CMS-1450, respectively. The gap analysis project, known as ASPIRE,
identified the gaps between the paper claims and the 837 electronic claims.

The results of the ASPIRE project can be found on the Association for
Electronic Health Care Transactions (AFEHCT)'s web site; the URL is

Does anyone have information on what is going to happen with the paper claim
forms for the CMS-1500 and UB92?  We are wrestling with the issue of the
data content gap between the current paper forms and the ANSI 837 format.
We are trying to determine how we will produce an outgoing 837 from an
incoming paper CMS-1500 or UB92.   We have heard that CMS and the National
Uniform Billing Organization are doing an analysis on the forms, but we
haven't heard anything more.  What do you know?
