Avoiding/Correcting This Error
- Verify the claim history using the FFS/DDE Provider Online system, your remittance advice and/or the CWF to determine the episode claim that is causing the overlap
- If there are services that should have been included on a processed/paid episode claim, you must submit an adjustment (3X7 bill type) to add any services which were not originally included on the claim
- All services provided to a beneficiary within the home health episode must be submitted on one claim.
