Overview

The Payer: New and Payer: [name] pages are comprised of five tabs:

The Group IDs tab collects identification numbers issued by the payer to each provider group for general or facility-specific. Group identification numbers recorded at the payer are inherited by its plans, but can be overridden at the plan. By default, the plan inherits the group identification numbers recorded in its parent payer configuration.

The Group IDs will only be generated on paper claims.
