Infinedi wants to make your experience, submitting claims electronically, as efficient and cost effective as possible. We offer a wide range of services and tools to make your life easier and offer expert and friendly customer and technical support. Unlike many payer-sponsored “free “or deeply “discounted” options offered by other clearinghouses, Infinedi receives its payment for services from you, the provider, not the insurance company. This means that Infinedi always has your best interests in mind and is an advocate for the provider, not the insurance companies. We are on your side! Likewise, Infinedi’s services will pay for themselves over the long-term with time-saving and proficient tools, reports and customer service not provided by any other clearinghouse anywhere.

A billing service is contracted by a healthcare provider to manage the day to day operations like claims ling and claims follow-up to facilitate the reimbursement for patient services rendered.

A clearinghouse is contracted by the provider or billing service to accept and edit electronic transactions. Transactions are then translated to a HIPPA compliant language and then routed electronically to the appropriate payer. Confirmation reports and Electronic Remittance Advice are returned by the payer and processed back to the provider or billing service.

No. Many practice management vendors will only service their product if a service contract is purchased. Many times these fees can be costly and billed by the hour. In addition, many other clearinghouses make their profits through payer sponsorship and participation contracts. For this reason, customer service is not their priority since technically they are working for the payer not the provider. Infinedi is working for you, the provider, so making sure you get the very best customer service possible is our goal. Help is only a click or a phone call away and is included in your standard service pack- age, free of charge.

Infinedi has made available to our clients the option to order CMS-1500 and UB-04 forms through our website.

Compatibility – Internet connection and ability to create a claims Infinedi provides the application used for transmission of the claims file. For assistance submitting your first file, please contact our technical department at 1-800-688-8087.

You will create a batch of claims (either ANSI or Print Image) in your practice management system and transmit to Infinedi via our Connect2Infinedi application.

• Infinedi accepts claims Print Image Professional and Institutional claims.
• Infinedi accepts claims in the following formats ANSI 4010 837P, ANSI 4010 837I, ANSI 5010 837P, ANSI 5010 837I , ANSI 5010 837D and XML.

Please contact your practice management software vendor or consult your user manual for technical assistance. Infinedi has developed a rapport with many software vendors and can offer assistance to your software company when possible. When your software has an issue that causes EDI specific issues to occur that either prevent or impede your ability to use our service, Infinedi will make every effort to provide the necessary information and technical assistance to your software vendor. Infinedi wants to ensure every provider is able to file their claims to the payer for reimbursement.

You can contact Infinedi at 1-800-688-8087 and ask our technical support to delete the claim or batch as long as you call the same date the claim was transmitted. Claim or batch deletion requests must be received no later than 4:30 PM CST or the claim(s) will transmit to the payer and cannot be deleted.

Your internet is down. Please contact your ISP internet service provider for assistance.

No. There are still some payers that cannot accept electronic claims. Infinedi has our payer listing published on our website for your convenience. Claims that cannot go electronically to the payer will be printed to paper and mailed to the payer by Infinedi unless you prefer to print and mail your own paper claims from your office. You may consult your fee schedule to determine pricing for paper claims.

No. Like all clearinghouses, Infinedi must utilize other gateways, in some cases, in order to get your claims to their destination. Payers with exclusive contracts with other gateways require all claims to be processed through that entity only.

You will immediately receive claims status from Infinedi letting you know we have received and processed your claims. However, payers will not typically respond with status reports for 24 hours to 7 days. It is always a good idea to check Infinedi website regularly to verify status of your claims. Likewise, all payers do not return status reports at all. Again, it would be advantageous to contact the payer to make sure they have received and accepted all claims. Sometimes, claim status will be unavailable for a few days while claim is routed through the payer’s process.

If Medicare has rejected and deleted your batches due to a crosswalk problem, there may be one or more issues going on with your claim.

• Are you using the same tax id number on your claims that you have enrolled with Medicare?
• Are you filing with the correct filing status? Anytime you have made a change from sole proprietor to group or group to sole proprietor, this will determine if you are enrolled with Medicare as a group or as an individual and the NPI number(s) on the claim will reflect this.
• Have you recently updated your profile on the NPPES website and it differs from the information submitted on your claims or your EDI enrollment? See our provider credentialing alert?
• Is the combination of NPI and tax information on your claim the same as your Medicare enrollment information? 

You will need to take steps to make sure all of your information on your claims matches, Medicare, NPPES and the IRS in order for you claims to process correctly. If all of these items have been verified with Medicare enrollment and appear to be correct, you need to make sure you have notified Infinedi of any recent changes to your NPI or tax information so we can make sure your EDI enrollment matches Medicare’s records and that we are editing your claims against the correct information in our provider database.
