The CDF can override the Type of Bill on the claim in certain situations, like switching it to 132 and 133 for recurring accounts.

Type of Bill determines how a claim is classified for billing and remittance, signaling the processing rules and the kind of encounter being billed. The system may allow the CDF to override this field when the standard TOB wouldn’t reflect the service pattern accurately, such as for recurring accounts. By switching to TOB values like 132 or 133, the claim aligns with the appropriate rules for recurring care, ensuring proper routing and adjudication. Other fields—Billing Cycle affects how often bills are issued, Payment Method indicates how the patient will pay, and Facility Code identifies the location—do not define the billing classification in the same way, so they aren’t used to handle recurring-account scenarios in this context.
