Advance Communication Engine (NGS-ACE) System Edit Module for Electronic Claim Submission

We are diligently working on enhancing NGS-ACE for providers in Jurisdiction 6 (Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota) by adding additional edits and resources.

NGS-ACE includes additional business level edits applied to your electronically submitted claims. This editing allows you to correct any errors and resubmit your claim before the MCS receives them. NGS-ACE returns the edit information on the 277 Claim Acknowledgement (277CA) transaction that you currently receive and is available to all direct submitters as well as those who transmit claims via clearinghouses/billing services. It’s important to communicate with your clearinghouse to ensure you are able to receive a full 277CA to include these smart edits.

There are many benefits associated with NGS-ACE such as improved billing inefficiencies, reduced appeal/reopening requests, decreased denial rates, and reduced administrative costs and reduced provider burden.

We’re offering webinars to review the NGS-ACE edit module and answer any questions you may have. All direct submitters, as well as those who transmit claims via clearinghouses/billing services within J6, are encouraged to attend. Visit our Events web page or register below.
