Tom,
I stand corrected. I had overlooked the SBR02
problem.
Supposedly, then, the Subscriber could have any number of
Patients, so long as one of them is not himself. (I think the IG guys didn't
intend this effect, but it's there, so...).
The opinions expressed here are my own and not necessarily the opinion of
LCMH.

Subject: RE: 837 Subscriber and Patient
Loops
Option two is the only correct option. There is a conflict
with SBR02 (Relationship Code) in the 2000B loop. It is situational with
the following note:
"Required when the subscriber is the same person as
the patient. If the subscriber is not the same person as the patient, do
not use this element."
In order to satisfy the above requirement,
you must repeat the subscriber information.
Hope this
helps.

List Subject: 837 Subscriber and Patient Loops
I have a question
regarding subscriber and patient loops in the 837. If a healthcare
provider bills claims for both the subscriber and the subscriber's
dependent in the same 837, how should the subscriber and patient loops be
arranged?
Option 1
2000B - SUBSCRIBER HIERARCHICAL
LEVEL 2010BA - SUBSCRIBER NAME, ADDRESS, DEMOGRAPHIC 2010BB - PAYER
NAME 2300 - CLAIM INFORMATION
2000C - PATIENT HIERARCHICAL
LEVEL 2010CA - PATIENT NAME, ADDRESS, DEMOGRAPHIC 2300 - CLAIM
INFORMATION
Option 2
2000B - SUBSCRIBER HIERARCHICAL
LEVEL 2010BA - SUBSCRIBER NAME, ADDRESS, DEMOGRAPHIC 2010BB - PAYER
NAME 2300 - CLAIM INFORMATION
2000B - SUBSCRIBER HIERARCHICAL
LEVEL 2010BA - SUBSCRIBER NAME, ADDRESS, DEMOGRAPHIC 2010BB - PAYER
NAME 2000C - PATIENT HIERARCHICAL LEVEL 2010CA - PATIENT NAME, ADDRESS,
DEMOGRAPHIC 2300 - CLAIM INFORMATION
In option 1, the patient
hierarchical level starts immediately after the subscriber's claim
data. In option 2, the subscriber level must be repeated after the
subscriber's claim data and before the dependent's claim data. Which one is
the correct option when a provider submits claims for both the subscriber
and the subscriber's dependent in the same 837?
Thank
you,
