The guidance from X12 on this topic is that you use:

- P for the primary payer
- S for the secondary payer
- T for ALL subsequent payers, including also the payer of "last resort" such 
as Medicaid.

So the sequence P S T T T would be the one to use instead of P S S S S
or even P S S S T as you suggest.
