Verifying Accuracy of Claims Processing

Split Claims May Appear Separately

Electronic claims that are split into multiple claims by Wisconsin Medicaid will be reported as multiple claims on Medicaid remittance information. As a result, multiple claims resulting from a split claim may not appear on the same 835 transaction or R/S Report.

The following electronic claims may be split:

• Claims with more than 28 detail lines.
• Dental claims with multiple tooth numbers per detail.
• Claims with the same service for consecutive dates of service (i.e., span dates). (This is not true for rental services or services provided by nursing home providers.)
