Multiple Choice

The CDF can change many things about how ______ appear on the claim, including maximum quantities and when to combine them onto 1 line.

The question is about how line items appear on the claim. The CDF, or Charge Description File, governs how charges are presented on the claim—specifically how many units (maximum quantities) can be shown on a single line and when multiple charges should be bundled onto one line. It doesn’t change the codes themselves, nor does it alter patient or date fields. For example, the CDF can specify that two units of the same service billed on the same date appear as one line with a quantity of 2, or that they appear as separate lines, depending on the bundling rules in the file. That’s why the fit is charges.
