As part of the delivery of data to the state of Vermont under this contract, Onpoint Health Data is required to deliver a fully consolidated, incurred claims data set. Therefore we would like to have you explain what claims consolidation method will be required to take your paid claims data sets for a given time period and consolidate them into a detail claim line transaction set that accurately represents the current incurred claim payment status. Please provide this information below or via a separate email.
Typical consolidation methods include (a) the use of the version number field, where the highest version number of any detail claim line or claim should be considered the latest incurred payment status, and (b) a straight roll-up method with quantity and dollar data elements summed if all adjustment claim lines are present.
It often is helpful if someone in your organization who deals directly with claims processing and/or data warehousing answers this question. If you have questions about what is being requested, please contact Onpoint by email or phone (207-623-2555).
