CEDARS

Claims

Quarterly and annual claims: the template, uploads compiled over earlier quarters, withdrawals, personal information and corrections.

Who it is for: Program administrators. Revised for CEDARS release 0.2.0; this site runs release 0.2.0 (release notes).

Each claim year is confirmed five times: after each quarter, then with the final annual claims. Claims lists the periods and due dates.

First steps

  1. Download the claims template (Excel) for the tables and fields.
  2. Upload only the records new or changed since the last confirmation; CEDARS compiles them with the earlier quarters.
  3. Check: records are checked against the claims rules and deemed measures against eTRM. Fix and upload again.
  4. Price the year to date, then confirm. Quarters are confirmed in order.

Contacts and sites never go in the claims file: upload them separately on the period's page (needs the PII permission). To withdraw a claim, list its ClaimID in the next upload's Withdrawal table.
