Re: below - additionally, the 837 provides a PWK segment that allows one to note that a paper attachment goes with the claim. It provides for capture of info re: where the payor can find the paper attachment. (If I remember correctly, it provides for lots of info - like "call so and so at such and such number, refer to file # xyz" or "attachment xyz is being forwarded separately to so and so at such and such location"

Although the payers may have to support this, vendors do not, and I don't believe (my personal opinion only) that it is their top concern right now. If this is true, it is another example of the "disconnect" I find between what my payers see as important, and what my vendors are supplying. Also, many of the paper claims (not just secondary) that we send are due to a payers request for an attachment. Many of these attachments (i.e. Medicaid Sterilization forms) do not reside within out vendor solution, they are external. How will paper claims ever end if attachments are still required?

The logic being that with the mandated support for COB information in the 837 4010, payers and claim processors will be ending support of paper secondary with attached EOB, and requiring electronic submission.
