Experiencing paper trailer overload?

In many practices, office staff members receive "missing-information requests"—or trailers—from Quest Diagnostics on a weekly, or even daily, basis. Responding to each trailer manually can be time-consuming and disruptive to practice workflow.

Avoid disruptions and reduce paperwork with electronic
billing trailers (eTrailer)

Now there’s an easier way to clear up inaccurate or incomplete lab test orders. eTrailer allows you to easily view and respond to missing billing information electronically through Quanum™ eLabs (formerly Care360™).

Prevent billing trailers from the start

Most missing or incorrect lab test ordering information is due to Medicare Limited Coverage Policy (MLCP)-related errors.

Medicare's “limited coverage” tests are considered medically necessary only if the patient has certain medical conditions, symptoms, or diseases. Medicare determines medical necessity by considering the diagnosis information provided by the ordering physician. If a limited coverage test is not considered medically necessary by Medicare, the order must be accompanied by a signed, valid Advance Beneficiary Notice (ABN). Access our Medicare Coverage and Coding Guides for support in understanding MLCP guidelines.
