Field 2 on the CMS 1500 claim form is for the Patient's Name. The “Patient’s Name” is the name of the person who received the treatment or supplies. INSTRUCTIONS: Enter the patient’s full last name, first name, and middle initial. If the patient uses a last name suffix (e.g., Jr, Sr), enter it after the last name and before the first name. Titles (e.g., Sister, Capt, Dr) and professional suffixes (e.g., PhD, MD, Esq) should not be included with the name.
MEDICARE - Enter the patient's last name, first name, and middle initial, if any, as shown on the patient's Medicare card. This is a required field. | |
