4 / October 2009UB-04 Medicare Crossover Claims
Crossover Claim - Defined
The term, “crossover claim” applies when a member has Medicare as the primary insurance, and:
•The Medicare coverage is from traditional Medicare, not one of the Medicare Replacement (or Medicare HMO) plans
•Medicare issued a payment of any amount, or the entire payment was applied to the deductible
A claim is not a crossover claim when:
•The member’s primary insurance is not traditional Medicare
•Medicare denied the entire claim
•Medicare benefit exhaust claim

Automatic Crossover
Following are some of the reasons why claims fail to cross over from Medicare automatically
•The Medicare intermediary is not National Government Services (NGS) or is not an intermediary that has a partnership agreement with EDS
•Ambulatory surgical center (ASC) claims billed to Medicare on a CMS-1500 claim form with the SG modifier
•Data errors on the crossover file
– Examples include incorrect Social Security number
(SSN) or spelling of member name
Why Claims Do Not Cross Over Automatically

Claim Filing Limit
•The standard filing limit for Medicaid claims is one year from the date of service
•Crossover claims are not subject to the one-year filing limit
– Crossover claims may be submitted and processed irrespective of the age of the claim
7 / October 2009UB-04 Medicare Crossover Claims
Claims Partially Paid by Medicare
•When Medicare allows only some of the services on the claim:
– Only the Medicare-allowed services apply to crossover logic
• These services should be billed to Medicaid separately from the Medicare-denied services
• Providers should not send the Medicare Remittance Notice (MRN) to Medicaid when billing these services
– Only the Medicare-allowed services are exempt from the one-year filing limit
– Services denied by Medicare are subject to the one-year filing limit
• These services should be billed separately to Medicaid with a copy of the MRN
