Explanatory Code: 05B
UNREGISTERED WORKERS' COMPENSATION BOARD CLAIM
The patient is not eligible for AHCIP coverage for the date(s) of service. Submit your claim directly to the WCB.
AMA billing recovery tip:
Delete the claim to Alberta Health and resubmit the claim to Worker’s Compensation Board (WCB). Be reminded that services to WCB may be billed unbundled, meaning that all services provided to the patient are billable at 100% of the rates that are listed in the Schedule of Medical Benefits. You may also claim for dressing changes, post operative services, tray fees (for office based services) and the BCP payments.
