Announcement in version 18.03.14 release note:
Eligibility TLS/TPS Changes for Cognizant/TriZetto Clients
New requirements have been assigned by Cognizant/TriZetto for TLS in using the ELIGIBILITY features in the Intellect software. Cognizant stated, "In an effort to enhance our current product functionality and capabilities, we are in the process of upgrading your Master Eligibility Web Service (MES) offering. TPS will disable TLS 1.0 security protocol by end of year 2018, and is requesting clients upgrade their systems to accommodate TLS 1.1 and/or 1.2 protocols prior to this date." (emphasis added). In response to Cognizant's changes, Prime Clinical Systems has made the necessary changes to our software to comply with Cognizant/TriZetto's product. If an office uses Cognizant/TriZetto as their Clearing House Solution, the office requires an Intellect update to a version date greater than 2/28/2018. This change is seamless and requires no action on the part of the office once the software is updated. Failure to update to an Intellect version date greater than 2/28/2018 prior to December 2018 results in a non-functioning Eligibility feature within Intellect.
This menu option is used to print Insurance billing eligibility for a patient or small batch of patients. When a client's billing is set for Tele Com, the Eligibility screen populates with Verification Requests that have been sent via Billing --►Tele Com --►Verify (270) and picked-up by Billing --►Tele Com --►Acknowledgement (271). Also, specific patient accounts may be manually added to the file.
