In order to avoid claim delay and payment, it is imperative that you include the corresponding Tax Identification Number or Social Security Number along with your assigned NPI.
The QGE message requires the "XX" qualifier in LOOP – 2010AA (Billing Provider Name) segment ID, NM108 and the National Provider Identifier in segment ID NM109. The "EI" qualifier requires the corresponding Tax Identification Number or the Social Security Number with "SY" qualifier in segment REFO2.
