Wiki Problems from Vendor while filing "J7603"

[dburchett]

I was wondering if any other members had any similar errors while trying to file Albuterol J7603?

I have received the following error from two different payers.

Rejected -CLAIM REJECTED BY SECOND EDITS
PROCEDURE CODE (J7603) IS INVALID. MUST BE A VALID CODE FOR THE DATE OF SERVICE. (LINE #8).

I have contacted both payer and they have both said that J7603 is a valid code.




All times are in Eastern Time

My vendor hadn't loaded the new code yet. I sent them the page from the HCPCS book along with CMS code additions for 2008. They are going to fix it.
