Quick, do you know what the National Uniform Claim Committee is?
You might not, and that’s perfectly understandable.
Whether you do or not, you’re probably familiar with the NUCC’s signature creation: the 1500 Health Insurance Claim Form (or simply the 1500 Form, successor to the old “HCFA 1500”). You (or somebody on your practice staff) likely fills out one of these to submit claims to insurance companies, Medicare, and the like.
This ringing any bells yet?
Anyway, the NUCC is conducting a survey on how the ol’ 1500 is being used, specifically as both a digital form and a print image. You should take the survey, because it’ll help the NUCC further understand how the form is being used.
It’s a pretty simple survey, should take only 5 to 10 minutes to complete, and all answers are confidential.
The survey closes on Nov. 10 so you better act soon. Email any questions you might have to nuccinfo[at]nucc[dot]org.
Oh, the NUCC? It’s an organization, hosted and chaired by the American Medical Association, that advocates and supports the health care industry’s adoption of uniform data and nationally-standardized transactions. And because we like to be involved, TMA is the alternate state medical association representative on the NUCC.
