This issue was discussed at a 276/277 meeting I attended this morning with
payers and providers in Southeast Michigan (HCIM).  While not completely
resolved, it was tentatively agreed that if a claim level inquiry is sent,
the response would contain service level information ONLY for a professional
claim.  

The outcome of the discussion was that this should be fully resolved within
the trading partner agreements.

This group also discussed sending all service line information if a single
service line inquiry is sent.  We agreed that it would be appropriate in the
case of a service line inquiry, since it would be easier to pull all lines
rather than search for a specific service line.

Subject: 276/277 Claim Status Inquiry/Response


Hi,

    Could someone tell me if I send a 276 Claim Status Inquiry at the Claim
Level, would the Information Source return the STC segment only at the Claim
Level or could/would they send back the STC segment at the Service Line
Level?

    Or would they only return the STC segment at the Service Line Level, if
I used the SVC segment in the 276 inquiry?

Thanks,
