UB04 Boxes 39 - 41 - What is a value code and why is it needed on my institutional claim?

Value codes are required on an institutional claim to identify data elements such as:

  • Medicare lifetime reserve days, no-fault payments, and the number of days not covered by the primary payer.


They can be easily added to the UB04.

  1. Navigate to Billing > Live Claims Feed > Inside patient's encounter > right side of the screen > value code tab.





The codes entered here (up to 4 for each box) will appear on the UB04 in boxes 39-41.
