Summary
IHCP clarifies that third-party liability (TPL) payment information for FQHC/RHC claims must be submitted at both claim header and service detail levels, with detail-level TPL amounts entered specifically with the T1015 or D9999 encounter code—not with individual service codes. Incorrect placement of TPL payments with service details may result in provider recoupments.
