Print Batches created by the Job Scheduler

Some paper claims will be created by the job which must be locally printed and mailed. Even if the clearinghouse is processing your primary paper claims, some secondary/tertiary paper claims (that do not allow electronic filing) will need to be printed.


Troubleshoot a Failed Claims Batch Job

After a Claims Batch Job has failed, a reason will be listed for the failed Job.

  • Claims that could not be batched can be seen in the Claims Submission Queue.
  • In the Encounter by Status panel, the Claims will remain in Ready for Resubmission (IP04) status.
  • The Claims can be manually batched and uploaded.

PIN to the Home Dashboard

On the Claims Management Dashboard, use the Push Pin to display the Claim Batches to be Sent/Printed panel to the Home Dashboard. This will be a visible alert that Batches need to be printed.
