Client: METLIFE(1st Nov 2020 – 26th May 2021)

Project Brief:- This project is all about CORRECTION OF HIPAA VIOLATIONS FOR DENTAL PRODUCTS.As business wants some existing code to be changed with new validations so accordingly we made some code change in a specific module and also generated new report module too. As a part of UCS DENTAL working on claims are the main agenda, as HIPAA X12 is all about claims scenarios and 835 transaction file generation project so based on user stories we used different CAGC, CARC, RARC codes and validations. I basically worked on one specific user story which deals with Alternate Procedure Service Lines Charges, when alternate procedure service lines(1 to 1 or many to 1) are Declined , they must be represented in 835 transaction file and we must use CAGC,CARC,RARC codes associated with narratives and shorts comments attached to the alternate claims when applicable. This impacts only the 835 file data, does not impact claims processing or EOBs. Previously for each charge line it populates individual amounts now it will be calculated all together and CAGC code PR and CARC code 45 will show as a group and reason code variables.
