OK, what's the deal with the listserv? I've gotten this message about seven
(7) times now. Is it just me?

Thanks Alan,
Now I get it too.
And I agree with you that in order to uniquely define a claim, we should
have the provider's claim # (CLM01) as a required field. REF*1K could be
interpreted as this.  The Member ID is a mandatory field for the subscriber
level.  This will narrow down a search.
A bold solution to a query that returns more then 99 possible matches would
be to use a Claim Status Category "A4 Acknowledgement/Not Found" and a claim
Status of "0 cannot provide further information electronically". 99 +
responses also sends a lot of PMI over the ether whereby 99% of it is
useless. Think of the poor provider who has to wade through all this
information.
While we are mulling over the structure of the 276, why is there contact
information for the information source, but not for the receiver?  It would
make more sense to be able to provide contact info for the requestor, so
that a payer who wants to communicate directly with the requestor, has the
necessary info.
The 270 has this solved more logically.  There is no provision for the
information source's contact info, but for the receiver's.
