Insured’s ID number (Box 1A)

The Insured’s ID number for this policy is a number issued by the insurance carrier that is specific to the patient. It is usually found on the patient’s Insurance ID card, but it may be on forms sent to the practice by the insurance company. In rare instances it may be given to the practice verbally over the phone. This field is required. If this box is left blank, the patient will be listed in the Pre-Billing Tab of the Insurance Manager which will hold and NOT produce claims until this item has been entered.
