The workflow below describes how to set up the Billing Engine to show your Facility Name and Facility NPI as the Rendering Provider in an 837 file, a setup piece that is particularly applicable to Dispensing Agencies. The information is set up at the staff and Activity Code level and applies to a specific Party Type (e.g. if Party Type 4 is selected this would apply to all plans under Medicaid).
