Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Claim attachments are supplemental documents that provide additional information to the claims processor that normally cannot be included within the electronic claim format. Ancillary documents are related to medical treatment, while records attachments are electronically transmitted medical records. Certificates of necessity may be required for certain medical procedures but are not related to supplemental documents for claims processing.
