Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment (EPSDT) (See 42 CFR §
440.40(b)).
Program Type 02.
Family Planning (See 42 CFR § 440.40(c)).
Program Type 03.
Rural Health Clinics (RHC) (See 42 CFR § 440.20(b)).

Program Type 08.
Money Follows the Person (MFP) service package (established by Section 6071 of Deficit
Reduction Act of 2005 [Public Law 109-171] and extended by Section 2403 off the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 [Public Law 111-148]).
Program Type 10.
Balancing Incentive Payments (BIP). The Balancing Incentive Program authorizes grants
to States to increase access to non-institutional long-term services and supports (LTSS) as of
October 1, 2011.
The Balancing Incentive Program will help States transform their long-term care systems by:
• Lowering costs through improved systems performance & efficiency
• Creating tools to help consumers with care planning & assessment
• Improving quality measurement & oversight
The Balancing Incentive Program also provides new ways to serve more people in home and
community-based settings, in keeping with the integration mandate of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA), as required by the Olmstead decision. The Balancing Incentive Program
was created by the Affordable Care Act of 2010 (Section 10202).
Program Type 11.
Community First Choice (See SSA § 1915(k)).
Program Type 12.
Psychiatric Rehab Facility for Children. Under the authority of section 2707 of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (Affordable Care Act), the Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services (CMS) is funding the Medicaid Emergency Psychiatric Demonstration, which
will be conducted by participating States. This is a 3-year Demonstration that permits
participating States to provide payment under the State Medicaid plan to certain nongovernment psychiatric hospitals for inpatient emergency psychiatric care to Medicaid recipients
aged 21 to 64 who have expressed suicidal or homicidal thoughts or gestures, and are
determined to be dangerous to themselves or others.
Program Type 13.
Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) State Plan Option (See SSA § 1915(i)).
States can offer a variety of services under a State Plan Home and Community-Based Services
(HCBS) benefit. People must meet State-defined criteria based on need and typically get a
combination of acute-care medical services (like dental services, skilled nursing services) and
long-term services (like respite, case management, supported employment and environmental
modifications).
1915(i) State plan HCBS: State Options
• Target the HCBS benefit to one or more specific populations
• Establish separate additional needs-based criteria for individual HCBS

“other services” applicable to the population
Option to allow any or all HCBS to be self-directed
State Plan CHIP (See 42 CRF § 457).

Program Type 15.
Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facilities Demonstration Grant Program. The
Community Alternatives to Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facilities (PRTF) Demonstration
Grant Program was authorized by Section 6063 of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 to provide
up to $218 million to up to 10 states to develop 5-year demonstration programs that provide
home and community-based services to children as alternatives to PRTF's. Nine states
implemented demonstration grants. These projects were designed to test the cost-effectiveness
of providing services in a child’s home or community rather than in a PRTF and whether the
services improve or maintain the child’s functioning.
Program Type 16.
SSA § 1915(j) (Self-directed personal assistance services/personal care under State
Plan or 1915(c) waiver). Self-directed personal assistance services (PAS) are personal care and
related services provided under the Medicaid State plan and/or section 1915(c) waivers the
State already has in place.
• Participation in self-directed PAS is voluntary
• Participants set their own provider qualifications and train their PAS providers
Participants determine how much they pay for a service, support or item
Program Type 17.
COVID-19 Testing Services Section 6004(a)(3) of the Families First Coronavirus
Response Act (FFCRA) added Section 1902(a)(10)(A)(ii)(XXIII) to the Social Security Act (the
Act). During any portion of the public health emergency period beginning March 18, 2020, this
provision permits states to temporarily cover uninsured individuals through an optional
Medicaid eligibility group for the limited purpose of COVID-19 testing. Such medical assistance,
as limited by clause XVIII in the text following Section 1902(a)(10)(G) of the Act, includes: in
vitro diagnostic products for the detection of SARS–CoV–2 or the diagnosis of the virus that
causes COVID–19, and any visit for COVID–19 testing-related services for which payment may
be made under the State plan. For the purposes of this eligibility group, please reference the
COVID-19 FAQs on implementation of Section 6008 of the Families First Coronavirus Response
Act and Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act for the definition of an
uninsured individual.[4] States can claim 100 percent FMAP for services provided to an
individual enrolled in the COVID-19 testing group. The 100 percent match is only available for
the testing and testing-related services provided to beneficiaries enrolled in the new COVID-19
testing group (and for related administrative expenditures).

Appendix P.01: Submitting Adjustment Claims to T-MSIS
Brief Issue Description
There are two ways original claims, and their subsequent adjustments can be linked into a claim family – either
through all adjustments linking back to the original claim or each subsequent adjustment linking back to the
prior claim (i.e., “daisy chain”). Identifying the members of a claim family is necessary to evaluate the changes to
a claim that occur throughout its life.
Background Discussion
Before delving into CMS’ guidance on how to populate the ICN-ORIG and ICN-ADJ fields, some background
discussion is needed on terminology and concepts.
What claim transactions should be submitted to T-MSIS?
Every “final adjudicated version of the claim/encounter” should be submitted to T-MSIS.

A “final adjudicated version of the claim/encounter” is a claim that has completed the adjudication process and
the paid/denied process. The claim and each claim line will have one of the finalized claim status categories
listed in Table 1, below. The actual disposition of the claim can be either “paid” or “denied.”
Table 1: Finalized Claim Status Categories
Code Finalized Claim Status Category Description
F0

Finalized-The encounter has completed the adjudication cycle and no more action will
be taken. (Used on encounter records)

F1

Finalized/Payment-The claim/line has been paid.

F2

Finalized/Denial-The claim/line has been denied.

F3

Finalized/Revised - Adjudication information has been changed.

Both original claims (or encounters) and adjusted claims (or encounters) can be a “final adjudicated version of
the claim/encounter.” Whenever a claim/encounter flows through the adjudication and payment processes (if
applicable) and falls into one of the claim status categories in Table 1, the state should send the claim/encounter
to T-MSIS.
If a claim flows through the adjudication and payment processes and falls into one of the finalized claim status
categories multiple times within a single T-MSIS reporting period, CMS expects each of these final adjudicated
versions of the claim/encounter to be submitted to T-MSIS, not just the one effective on the last day of the
reporting period.
If the claim has not been through the final adjudication process or is “pending” (or in “suspense”), the claim
should not be sent to T-MSIS until disposition has been settled to one of the finalized claim status categories.
Table 2 provides examples and CMS’ expectations.
v4.0.0

33

Appendix P.01
Table 2: Scenarios for When to Submit Claims
Claim Submission Scenario

CMS’ Expectation

Adjudicated and paid in the same
reporting month

CMS expects the claim to be sent to T-MSIS in the reporting month.

Adjudicated in one reporting
period, but paid in another
reporting month

CMS expects the claim to be sent to T-MSIS in the month that the claim was paid.

Adjudicated and paid in one
reporting month, and then readjudicated and paid in a
subsequent month

The claim should be reported in the month it is paid, regardless of whether it is an
original claim or an adjustment. Therefore, in this scenario, CMS expects the original to
be reported in month one and the adjustment to be reported in the subsequent
month.

Adjudicated and paid, and then readjudicated and paid in the same
reporting month

In this scenario, if a claim flows through the adjudication and payment processes and
falls into one of the claim status categories in Table 1 multiple times within a single TMSIS reporting period, CMS expects each of these final adjudicated versions of the
claim/encounter to be submitted to T-MSIS, not just the one effective on the last day
of the reporting period.

Re-adjudicated and paid multiple
times in the same reporting month

In this scenario, if a claim flows through the adjudication and payment processes and
falls into one of the claim status categories in Table 1 multiple times within a single TMSIS reporting period, CMS expects each of these final adjudicated versions of the
claim/encounter to be submitted to T-MSIS, not just the one effective on the last day
of the reporting period.

What is a claim family?
A “claim family” (a.k.a. “adjustment set”) is defined as a set of post-adjudication claim transactions in paid or
denied status that relate to the same provider/enrollee/services/dates of service. This grouping of the original
claim and all its subsequent adjustment and/or void claims shows the progression of changes that have occurred
since it was first submitted.
Are gross adjustments considered claims/encounters?
While the gross adjustment adjudication indicator codes (values “5” and “6” in Table 3) are reported to T-MSIS
in the CLAIM-OT file, they are not technically “claims” or “encounters.” Each of these transactions does not
relate to a specific service-provider/enrollee episode of care. Instead, these transactions represent payments
made by the state for services rendered to multiple enrollees (as in the case of a provider providing screening
services for a group of enrollees), DSH payments, or a recoupment of funds previously dispensed in a debit gross
adjustment. Therefore, the concept of “claims family” does not apply. Each of these transactions stands on its
own and does not constitute a subsequent transaction being a replacement of the earlier transaction.

Refer to T-MSIS Coding Blog entry “Reporting Adjustment Indicator (ADJUSTMENT-IND) for Financial
Transactions (Claims)” for additional detailed information.
What alternatives are there for tying the members of a claim family together?
The Original ICN Approach
v4.0.0

34

Appendix P.01
Under this approach, the state assigns an ICN to the initial final adjudicated version of the claim/encounter and
records this identifier in the ICN-ORIG field. If adjustment claims subsequently are created, the ICN assigned to
the initial final adjudicated version of the claim/encounter is carried forward on every subsequent adjustment
claim. Table 3 illustrates how the ICN-ORIG and ICN-ADJ values on the members of a claim family are populated
when the original ICN approach is used.

The Daisy-Chain ICN Approach
Under this approach, the state records the ICN of the previous final adjudicated version of the claim/encounter
in the ICN-ORIG field of the adjustment claim record. If additional adjustment claims are subsequently created,
the ICN-ORIG on the new adjustment claim only points back one generation. Table 4 illustrates how the ICNORIG and ICN-ADJ values on the members of a claim family are populated when the daisy-chain ICN approach is
used.

How are ICN-ORIG and ICN-ADJ fields impacted when voids are submitted?
The primary purpose of void transactions (ADJUSTMENT-IND = 1) is to nullify a claim/encounter from T-MSIS
when the state does not wish to replace it with an adjusted claim/encounter record. These records must have
v4.0.0

35

Appendix P.01
the same claim key data element values as the claim/encounter being voided. Dollar and quantity fields should
be set to zero. The ADJUDICATION-DATE on these records should be set to the date that the state voided the
claim.
Refer to T-MSIS Coding Blog entry “Populating T-MSIS Claims File Data Elements on Void/Reversal/Cancel
Records” for additional detailed information.
Table 5 illustrates an example of how the dollar and quantity fields on the members of a claim family are
populated when the state wishes to void a claim.

If a state uses a process to record adjustments whereby, they void the previous version of the claim and then
follow-up with the creation of a new original transaction, and the state can identify that the void and the new
original claim are from the same adjudication set, the state should link them together into one claims family
using the ICN-ORIG. CMS recognizes that some states may not be able to link a resubmitted claim after a void to
the original claim. Table 6 illustrates how CMS is expecting the states to populate the ICN-ORIG/ICN-ADJ fields
when the state processes a void/new original when adjusting claims.

How Adjustment Records will be Applied by CMS
There is an inherent limitation in the way that CMS can interpret what to do with two claim transactions having
the same ICN-ORIG and ADJUDICATION-DATE when both transactions are received in a single submission file.
The processing rules that T-MSIS will follow are outlined below. It is up to each state to assure that claim
transactions are processed in the appropriate sequence. If the rules below do not result in the sequence of
transactions that the state desires, it is up to the state to submit transactions in separate files so that the desired
sequence is attained.
Rules for inserting claim transactions into the T-MSIS database
When two or more claim transactions with the same ICN-ORIG and ADJUDICATION-DATE are in the same
submission file

If two or more transactions in an incoming claim file have the same ICN-ORIG and ADJUDICATION-DATE values,
T-MSIS will evaluate the ADJUSTMENT-IND values and insert the transactions into the T-MSIS database as
follows:
1.

If more than two transactions in the incoming claim file have the same ICN-ORIG and
ADJUDICATION-DATE values, then T-MSIS will reject all the incoming transactions.

2.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND values of both incoming transactions are the same (but not ‘5’ or ‘6’), then
T-MSIS will reject both incoming transactions.

3.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND values of both incoming transactions are some combination of ‘5’ and ‘6’
and if there is no active existing transaction in the T-MSIS DB, then T-MSIS will insert both incoming
transactions into the T-MSIS DB (note, since neither transaction supersedes the other, the order in
which they are inserted does not matter).

4.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND values of both incoming transactions are some combination of ‘5’ and ‘6’
and if there is an active existing transaction in the T-MSIS DB with an ADJUSTMENT-IND value of ‘5’
or ‘6’, then T-MSIS will insert both incoming transactions into the T-MSIS DB (note, since neither
transaction supersedes the other, the order in which they are inserted does not matter).

5.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND values of both incoming transactions is a ‘5’ or ‘6’ and if there is an active
existing transaction in the T-MSIS DB with an ADJUSTMENT-IND value of ‘0’, ‘1’, or ‘4’, then T-MSIS
will reject both the incoming transactions.

v4.0.0

37

Appendix P.01
6.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND value of one incoming transaction is a ‘5’ or ‘6’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND
of the other transaction is ‘0’, ‘1’, or ‘4’ and if there is an active existing transaction in the T-MSIS DB
with an ADJUSTMENT-IND value of ‘5’ or ‘6’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction with
ADJUDICATION-IND of ‘5’ or ‘6’ and reject the incoming transaction with ADJUSTMENT-IND value ‘0’,
‘1’, or ‘4’.

7.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND value of one incoming transaction is a ‘5’ or ‘6’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND
of the other transaction is ‘0’, ‘1’, or ‘4’ and there is an active existing transaction in the T-MSIS DB
with an ADJUSTMENT-IND value of ‘0’, ‘1’, or ‘4’, then T-MSIS will reject the incoming transaction
with ADJUSTMENT-IND value ‘5’ or ‘6’ and evaluate the remaining incoming transaction as follows:
a. ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘0’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘0’, then T-MSIS will reject the incoming transaction.
b. ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘0’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘1’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction.
c. ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘0’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘4’, then T-MSIS will reject the incoming transaction.
d. ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘1’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘0’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction.
e. ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘1’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘1’, then T-MSIS will reject the incoming transaction.
f.

ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘1’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘4’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction.

g. ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘4’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘0’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction.
h. ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘4’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘1’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction.
i.

ADJUSTMENT-IND of the remaining incoming transaction is ‘4’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
active existing transaction is ‘4’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction.

8.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND value of one incoming transaction is ‘1’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
other transaction is ‘0’ or ‘4’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the active existing transaction in the TMSIS DB is ‘0’ or ‘4’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction with ADJUSTMENT-IND = ‘1’
first, and then insert the other transaction.

9.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND value of one incoming transaction is ‘1’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the
other transaction is ‘0’ or ‘4’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND of the active transaction in the T-MSIS DB is
‘1’, then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction with ADJUSTMENT-IND value of ‘0’ or ‘4’ first
and then insert the incoming transaction with ADJUSTMENT-IND = ‘1’.

10.

If the ADJUSTMENT-IND value of one incoming transaction is ‘0’ and the ADJUSTMENT-IND value of
the other incoming transaction is ‘4’ and there is no active existing transaction in the T-MSIS DB,

v4.0.0

38

Appendix P.01
then T-MSIS will insert the incoming transaction with ADJUSTMENT-IND value of ‘0’ first and then
insert the incoming transaction with ADJUSTMENT-IND = ‘4’.
11.

If any other combination of ADJUSTMENT-IND values occurs, then T-MSIS will reject all the
transactions.

CMS Guidance
The state can use either the original ICN approach or the daisy-chain ICN approach to populate the ICN-ORIG
field on each member of the claims family. T-MSIS will group claim transactions into claim families as part of the
ETL process.

Appendix P.05: Populating Qualifier Fields and Their Associated
Value Fields
Brief Issue Description
The purpose of this guidance document is to when record segments need to be created for all valid values in a
qualifier field’s valid value set and when it is appropriate to create a record segment for only one of the valid
values.
Background Discussion
Definitions

Simple Qualifier Field – is a data element that contains a code (a.k.a. “flag”) that defines/qualifies the coding
schema used when populating a set of corresponding data elements. This is necessary because there are several
different schemas that a state could use and it needs to be clear which of the schemas is actually used.
Examples of “simple qualifier fields” are the DIAGNOSIS-CODE-FLAG-1 through -12 on the CLAIM-HEADERRECORD-IP record segment (CIP00002). The valid value set for these fields is:
1 ICD-9
2 ICD-10
3 Other
The state would indicate which coding schema is being used to populate the corresponding data elements
DIAGNOSIS-CODE-1 through -12.
Complex Qualifier Field – is a data element that not only defines/qualifies the contents of its corresponding
data elements (similar to a “simple qualifier field”), but also represents a situation where the state needs to
create a record segment for each valid value that applies to the record’s subject.
An example of a “complex qualifier field is LICENSE-TYPE on the PROV-LICENSING-INFO record segment
(PRV00004). The valid value set for this field is:
1. State, county, or municipality professional or business license
2. DEA license
3. Professional society accreditation
4. CLIA accreditation
5. Other
The state would create a PROV-LICENSING-INFO record segment and populate the corresponding data elements
for each LICENSE-TYPE valid value that applies to the provider.
Corresponding Data Elements – Are data elements that contain values as defined by the qualifier field.
Fully Populated Record Segment – Means that all data elements in the record segment will be populated, not
just the qualifier field and its corresponding data elements. These additional data elements are necessary to
enable CMS to tie the record segment to its parent segment. These data elements comprise the segment’s
natural key. Generally these data elements are the ones bulleted below, but there could potentially be
additional ones, depending on the record segment. See the “Record Keys & Constraints” tab in the T-MSIS Data
Dictionary if there are questions concerning a record segment’s natural key.

SUBMITTING-STATE
RECORD-NUMBER
MSIS-IDENTIFICATION-NUM / STATE-PLAN-ID-NUM / SUBMITTING-STATE-PROV-ID

Record Subject – This is the individual/entity around which the record segments in a file are built. The
Medicaid/CHIP enrollee is the subject of Eligible Files. In Provider Files, the subject is the provider. The managed
care entity is the subject of Managed Care Files, and third party payers and their associated beneficiaries are the
subjects of TPL Files.
Overview
The complex qualifier fields are included in the T-MSIS record layouts so that a given record segment layout can
be used to capture a standard set of data elements (i.e., the corresponding data elements) for a category of data
(i.e., the complex qualifier field’s valid values list) when more than one category may be applicable to the record
subject.
The complex qualifier fields’ valid values lists are not “select one value from the valid values list and provide the
corresponding data element values (which is the case for simple qualifier fields).” A separate record segment
should be created and fully populated for every “complex qualifier field” valid value or unique combination of
“complex qualifier field” valid value and corresponding data element value (in accordance with the Record Keys
& Constraints) that applies to the record subject. Table 1 illustrates what CMS is expecting, using LICENSE-TYPE
in the PROV-LICENSING-INFO record segment (PRV00004) as an example.
Example Scenario
The purpose of the PROV-LICENSING-INFO segment is to capture licensing and accreditation information
relevant to a provider. The valid value list for the LICENSE-TYPE data element shows the types of information
that CMS is interested in collecting in this record segment:
1. State, county, or municipality professional or business license
2. DEA license
3. Professional society accreditation
4. CLIA accreditation
5. Other
For our example, assume three of these categories are applicable to provider # P0123: (a) a professional license
issued by the state’s Board of Physicians (valid value # 1); (b.1) a board certification from the ABMS (valid value
# 3); (b.2) a board certification from the AOA (also valid value # 3); and (c) a DEA number (valid value # 2). Table
1 and 1a lists the data elements in the PRV00004 record segment, and shows the contents of each data element
in the four PRV00004 segments that would be required by this example.
Table 1: Examples of fully populated record segments supplying “complex qualifier field” corresponding data. While these data elements
aren't strictly "corresponding data elements," they are necessary to tie the segments to their parent segment.

CMS Guidance
CMS is instructing States to provide information corresponding to each of a complex qualifier field’s valid values
to the extent that the valid value is applicable to the record subject. Additionally, States should fully populate
the affected record segments.

In its first four columns, Table 2 displays the T-MSIS file name, record segment name, complex qualifier field
name and the complex qualifier field’s list of valid values for each of the complex qualifier fields in the T-MSIS
data set. The last two columns identify the corresponding data elements (along with the file segments where
they reside) that need to be populated for every applicable valid value in the “complex qualifier field’s” valid
value list.

Appendix P.07: Finding Provider Roles on Standard
Transactions
How to use this guidance document
This guidance document is not intended to slow down or derail existing state development initiatives.
The intent is to provide clarification and standardization across the nation in key areas raised by state
partners. Should guidance introduce rework in ongoing development, please bring this to the attention
of your TA and CMS analyst to direct you to the most appropriate path that minimizes impact to your
progress.
Brief Issue Description
Some States have requested assistance with identifying where to find in the X-12 claim transaction sets
the NPIs and taxonomy codes of providers who performed various roles associated with the
claim/encounter.

Background Discussion
Definitions
Provider role – The function that a specific provider performed for a particular patient on specified
dates of service, and which are contained on fee-for-service claims or reported on encounter records.
The particular roles that CMS would like to track on T-MSIS claims are:

• Admitting (attending) provider
• Billing provider
• Dispensing provider
• Operating provider
• Prescribing provider
• Referring provider
• Servicing (rendering) provider
• Ordering provider
Provider role information needed for the T-MSIS claim files can be extracted from the standard X-12
transactions. The five tables in the “CMS Guidance” section of this document provide T-MSIS-to-X-12
crosswalks for each provider role. The five tables are:
Table A: Provider roles on T-MSIS CLAIMIP files and their corresponding locations on the X-12
transactions
Table B: Provider roles on T-MSIS CLAIMLT files and their corresponding locations on the X-12
transactions
Table C: Provider roles on T-MSIS CLAIMOT (facility claims) files and their corresponding locations
on the X-12 transactions
v4.0.0

47

Appendix P.07
Table D: Provider roles on T-MSIS CLAIMOT (professional claims) files and their corresponding
locations on the X-12 transactions
Table E: Provider roles on T-MSIS CLAIMOT (dental claims) files and their corresponding locations
on the X-12 transactions
Table F: Provider roles on T-MSIS CLAIMRX files and their corresponding locations on the X-12
transactions
In each table, the first column identifies the provider role. The second and third columns identify the
specific T-MSIS record segments and data elements used to capture the NPI and taxonomy of the
provider performing the specified role. The fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh columns in tables “A”
through “E” provide the X-12 transaction name, data element identifier, data element description and
loop id that map to the T-MSIS data element. The fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh columns in table “F”
provide the segment name, field identifier, field name and definition of the applicable NCPDP D.0 data
set fields.
CMS Guidance
Use tables “A” through “F” to map the provider roles that are contained in the T-MSIS claim record
layouts to their corresponding X-12 standard transaction data elements.
If the T-MSIS data element does not exist in the X-12 transaction set (shown as “N/A” in the tables
below), 8-fill, leave blank or space-fill the T-MSIS data element when building T-MSIS claim files.
