ACE Smart Edits to Discontinue on August 31, 2024
Advanced Communication Engine (ACE) Smart Edits serve as a consideration for appropriate claim processing based upon the information submitted on a claim.
Currently, when a claim receives an ACE Smart Edit, CGS returns an informational message about appropriate billing procedures on the 277CA report. The 277CA report identifies if a claim is rejected or accepted.
Beginning on August 31, 2024, CGS will no longer provide ACE Smart Edits and related 277CA notifications for electronic claims.
During this 30-day notification period, CGS will address any provider or billing concerns prior to discontinuing the ACE Smart Edit process.
