Submitting a Test Batch

The first batch of claims you send to TriZetto is a test batch to confirm that the integration is working correctly. Your test batch must meet the following criteria:

  • Your test batch should include a minimum of 15 claims for three different non-vision carriers that your practice is credentialed with.
  • All claims must be in Ready to Bill status. For more information, go to Setting the Claim Status to Ready to Bill.

To submit the test batch:

  1. Open Claims Management.
  2. Click Billing Claims and select EDI Transmission.
  3. From the Carrier drop-down list, select the insurance carriers.

    All carriers are selected by default.

    Only carriers with the Electronic Claim Submission check box selected in Administration display in the Carrier drop-down list.
  4. Select a specific Provider, if necessary. All providers are selected by default.
  5. In the Service Date From and Service Date To text boxes, enter or select the date range.

    To search for all claims for the carrier, leave the date text boxes blank.

  6. Click Search.

    All claims with the Ready to Bill status that meet your search criteria appear.

  7. Select the check box next to each claim you want to bill (a minimum of 15).
  8. To send the selected claims to TriZetto, click Create And Send.

    The claims are transmitted to TriZetto as a test batch. TriZetto sends you an email notifying you of the result.

    • If the test batch was successful, TriZetto confirms that your integration is now live and you are ready to submit claims. TriZetto deletes the test batch, and the included claims are not processed. If you want to process them, create a new batch and resend them. For more information, go to Submitting Claims Through TriZetto.
    • If one or more claims in the batch were rejected due to errors, TriZetto lists the errors so you can correct them and retry the test batch. You cannot begin using TriZetto until you have successfully sent the test batch. See Correcting a Failed Test Batch.
