I would like to have the 1500 template open up with certain fields pre populated, such as box 33, physician billing address and NPidetails In fields. This way I do not have to re-enter info.

Hi Stan,

Yes there is a way to have certain fields already filled in when you start a new claim.  To begin, open a blank CMS 1500 PDF.  Then fill in all the fields that will not change (your NPI, billing address, etc).  Leave the other fields blank.  Then save the partially filled claim as "office_template.pdf" or something like that. 

Then when you are ready to complete a claim for a patient, open up the office_template.pdf - it will be partially filled from before.  Then type in the patient information and services.  Print it out.  When you are ready to save it, go to save, and give it a unique file name "J_Doe_121219.pdf for instance.  Then you will have the new claim saved on your computer.  

To do another claim open the  "office_template.pdf" for the next patient and it will be partially filled for you.

Best regards,

Dan
