Question: Will data submissions be cumulative (year-to-date) or incremental for all file types?
Answer: Enrollment submissions are full replacement files; therefore, all correct data must be included on each submission. If there are errors they should be corrected with the next full enrollment file submission. The pharmacy and medical claims submission files are not full replacements. If there is an error or correction for a pharmacy or medical claim submission, then the Void or Replace Indicator (V/R) should be used to replace or delete incorrect information. The active claims are stored in pharmacy and medical tables for reference. The table contains the accumulated data.
