Broadspire introduces e-Billing

Beginning January 1, 2008, health care providers and insurance carriers in the Texas workers’ compensation system are required to be able to exchange medical billing and reimbursement data electronically. Electronic billing is expected to reduce administrative costs, improve efficiencies and create faster results for both providers and payers.

Broadspire has chosen Ingenix as our e-billing agent to provide a best-in-class provider-to-payer solution that is in compliance with state workers’ compensation mandates. Ingenix is a leading health information technology company, and handles all aspects of a worker’s compensation claim, from submitting the first report of injury (FROI) and the subsequent report of injury (SROI) to doing e-billing and bill adjudication, and ensuring that state reporting requirements are met. Broadspire is pleased to be working with Ingenix to meet the Texas mandates and give providers a complete end-to-end workers’ compensation e-billing solution.

All payers have been provided with a National 5 digit Payer ID. To route your electronic bill to Broadspire, please utilize Payer ID TP021. Additional information on how to submit electronic bills and receive electronic remittance notifications can be located at the Ingenix web site, www.ingenix.com.

Detailed information for electronic billing, reimbursement and documentation for the state of Texas can be found on the Texas state web site, www.tdi.state.tx.us/wc/ebill/index.html.
