1.

The NTE segment permits free-form information/data which, under ANSI X12 standard implementations, is not machine processable. The use of the NTE segment should therefore be avoided, if at all possible, in an automated environment.

Notes:

1. Information in the NTE segment in Loop ID-2300 applies to the entire claim unless overridden by information in the NTE segment in Loop ID-2400. Information is considered to be overridden when the value in NTE01 in Loop ID-2400 is the same as the value in NTE01 in Loop ID-2300. The developers of this implementation guide discourage using narrative information within the 837. Trading partners who require narrative information with claims are encouraged to codify that information within the X12 environment.
2. Home Health Corresponding Data This segment is used to convey Home Health narrative information from the forms ‘‘Home Health Certification and Plan of Treatment’’ and ‘‘Medical Update and Patient Information.’’
3. Required only when provider deems it necessary to transmit information not otherwise supported in this implementation.
