The EMC Table ID is the key field that uniquely identifies each EMC table. The EMC tables contain information used in the electronic billing transmission file as well as information for processing the electronic medical claims.
Notes:
The EMC Table ID for each insurance is assigned by NDS and is included in the script that runs the electronic billing transmission.
If you only submit paper claims for this insurance, you do not need to set up EMC tables.
