IMPORTANT NOTICE:
On June 18, 2009, the Maryland Health Care Commission approved an 8% reduction in Trauma Fund reimbursements for all uncompensated care, standby, and on-call costs effective July 1, 2009.
The Maryland Health Care Commission (MHCC) is pleased to announce that it has contracted with CoreSource Inc, a leading third party administrator (TPA), to process uncompensated care claims for the Maryland Trauma Physician Services Fund. CORESOURCE ACCEPTS UNCOMPENSATED CARE CLAIMS. Effective May 8, 2009, the FAX number for claims submission is 410 931-8970. Electronic claims submission is also now available and may be arranged by contacting Maureen Abbott at CoreSource.
Please download the Trauma Fund Manual, January 2010 
for details. Practices providing trauma services
to uninsured patients may submit claims using standard CMS
1500 forms . Practices may submit an uncompensated care claim as soon as the practice has met its payment policy requirements for that claim. Payments are made by the State of Maryland on a monthly basis.
Detailed updates on claims submission will be provided via this
website. Interest in future trainings should be expressed to Valerie Wooding at 410-764-3570. Pre-registration
is required and seating is limited. Future training dates and information
updates will be posted on this site.
