Providers Can Fax Documentation on Part B Electronic Claims

Providers can now fax medical documentation that is needed to process a Medicare Part B electronic claim.

The documentation can be faxed to Highmark Medicare Services (HMS) any time before the claim is submitted—even as late as the day that the claim is submitted.

A fax cover sheet is available on the HMS website.
