Currently this tool is available in two different versions- expEDIum UB92/UB04 Claim Scrubber and expEDIum HCFA Claim Scrubber, they provide a standard UB92/UB04 and HCFA form interface respectively to the user for entering and managing claim data. Both versions of the eCS are National Provider Identification (NPI) ready.
