CMS 1500 Print Settings for Misaligned Claims

The PDF settings will allow for margin adjustment of the CMS 1500 (02/12). 

Click on Billing | Create Insurance Claims | PDF Settings

Note: Selecting “Submit automatic EDI file...” from the Claims Format drop-down list transmits claims directly to the clearinghouse, and the “PDF Settings” option is not available. 

Clicking “PDF Settings” will open a new window. 

The setting options are listed below: 

  • Font: the default font is Arial, the other option is Agency FB 
  • Font Size: the default font size is 10 pt. 
  • Left Offset: adjustment that needs to be made to the left margin (e.g. 0.01 moves the page right and -0.01 moves the page left) 
  • Top Offset: adjustment that needs to be made to the top margin (e.g. 0.01 moves the page up and -0.01 moves the page down) 
  • Scaling: 
    • None: the generated claim will not scale to the application 
    • Application Default: if the PDF program has a default scale the generated claim will use this setting
