Unique Tracking Number
The UTN (unique tracking number) comes from the Preclaim Review Decision Letter you receive from Medicare. Barnestorm does not have access, or authorization to contact Medicare to obtain this information for your agency. The UTN is required on the claim. See steps below on how to document the UTN.
Note: It is extremely important to follow the procedures to get the UTN as soon as possible. We have seen this cause several billing delays, as well as agency's losing revenue due to the timely filing limit expiring before they can obtain the UTN. **For any direct questions on the PreClaim Review Process, please contact Medicare.
