Submitting claims with complete and correct information is critical to ensuring Anthem can process your claims efficiently and accurately:

  • Billing should not include the rendering provider NPI in box 24J.
  • Provider group’s NPI should be billed in box 33a.
  • This applies for Place of Service 21, 22, 23, and 24 claims.
  • Review your billing practices carefully to ensure the proper TIN, NPI, and rendering provider information (if applicable) are submitted correctly.

More information is available on the CMS website.
