Rendering provider profile screen

The Rendering Provider Profile screen provides a centralized view of all essential provider details. It serves as a central location for managing and reviewing key provider information relevant to claims processing and provider configuration. 

Ensure the correct NPI is selected based on whether the provider is billing under their Individual NPI or Group NPI.

If a Provider Type is required, choose the appropriate option from the dropdown menu. 

Select the appropriate option based on whether the provider is billing under their EIN or SSN.

If required, enter the State License number. 

If required, enter the Taxonomy Code. If the payer does not require a ZZ qualifier, you can enter the taxonomy in this field only. The taxonomy code will be included in the EDI but will not be displayed on the actual claim form. 

If the payer requires the ZZ qualifier, go to the Insurance Companies and select the payer to add the Claim Specific Rule "Box 24 Use Taxonomy code in Box 24J shaded in the claim form and EDI." This ensures the taxonomy code, along with the ZZ qualifier, is displayed in Box 24J of the claim form. 

The External Reference # is a unique identifier assigned to a provider by another vendor when using an interface. It informs RXNT of the data the provider receives through the interface and ensures it is properly linked. 

To display the provider's name in Boxes 12, 13, or 31, simply check the corresponding box. 

The Rendering Provider Secondary Identifier lets you provide information you may not typically send to a payer. For example, a doctor might normally bill with their individual NPI, but if a specific payer wants them to use their group NPI, they can add that information here. The information listed in the Secondary Identifier field will go out on the claim form when that specific Payer is billed. 

If you've added a secondary identifier and want the corresponding provider name to be displayed in Box 31, or wish to use the secondary ID only, click the Folder Icon

Click the "Send Rendering Provider Name in Box 31" checkbox. This option is particularly useful for sending the rendering provider's name in Box 31 for certain payers while excluding it for others

Click the "Use Secondary ID Only" checkbox to ensure that only the information from the secondary identifier is used for that specific payer. 

Then, click Ok

Additional providers

To access Additional Providers, click Utilities in the top right corner. AP1.png

Click Providers, then Additional Providers. From here, you can add or search for an existing provider. 

To add a new provider, click New Provider.


Check the checkbox next to the type of new provider you would like to add.

Fields marked with a red asterisk are required.

If the Taxonomy Code has been entered, it will appear in Box 33B of the claim form without the ZZ qualifier.

If the payer requires the ZZ qualifier, go to the Insurance Companies and select the payer to add the Claim Specific Rule "Show Provider Taxonomy code in Box 33B." This ensures the taxonomy code, along with the ZZ qualifier, is displayed in Box 33B of the claim form. 

The Secondary Identifier allows you to include information that isn't typically sent to a payer. For instance, while a Billing Provider may usually bill under their individual NPI, a specific payer might require the group NPI instead. In such cases, the group NPI can be entered as a secondary identifier. This information will be included on the claim form only when billing that particular payer.
