eRx Remittance Instructions

30.1 - eRx Remittance Instructions (Rev. 11, Issued: 03-26-13, Effective: 06-25-12, Implementation: 06-25-12) The paper remit for eRx payments are to have the following explanatory message: “This is an eRx incentive payment.” The Medicare contractors have the ability to revise and/or update this message when CMS deems necessary. The PLB 03-1 segment of the outgoing electronic remittance will be annotated with “LE”. The incentive type year indicator from the header record of the eRx payment file will be used to populate the PLB 03-2 segment of the outgoing remittance notice. For example: The incentive type year indicator from the header record of the 2010 eRx payment file was RX10. Therefore, RX10 was used to populate the PLB 03-2 segment of the outgoing remittance notice. (See CR 6559 for more information.)
