For transportation health care service requests, AZ Medicaid has a need to collect specific location categories to ensure our members are being transported to and from the nearest appropriate facility/place. We obtain the location from the 2010EB N3 and N4 segments; however, we are unable to find an available data element to collect a location category. For example, if a member is being transported from home to a vision center. Where can this category be reported in the transaction?
We did check the Standard and find that 2010EB NM111 lists nearly all the categories we need; however, it is a 'Not Used' data element.
We do not have a way to support this in the current technical report. Upon submission of a change request, it will be considered for inclusion in a future version.
