Urgent Update Needed for PC-ACE Pro 32 Users
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is in the process of implementing new Medicare version 5010 claim edits which require that the Subscriber Group Number (SBR03/2000B) and Subscriber Group Name (SBR04/2000B) elements be empty. For historical reasons, PC-ACE Pro32 allows (and even auto-populates in many situations) these elements.
As such, changes are needed to the PC-ACE Pro32 claim prepare modules to force these elements to always be empty for Medicare claims prepared in version 5010 errata format. Failure to apply these changes will result in claim rejections beginning September 4, 2012 when the new edits are activated.
Resolution: Close PC-ACE Pro32 and click on the following link to download and install a patch that will correct this problem.
The download must be performed from the computer used to bill your claims. You can run the program directly from the browser's download dialog or save the program file to your Windows desktop and then execute it from there. Once the update program is running, simply click the "Next" button several times to perform the update. Click the "Finish" button to complete the process. If you saved the UPDTSBR.EXE program file to your desktop, you should delete it once it has been successfully installed.
