Can't generate HCFA using v5.0.1 (3)

Hi,

I still can’t solve the problem in order to print out 1500 form by generating the 1500 text or 1500 pdf file.
OpemEMR jumps to a screen with the error message:
Data item at (32, 16) precedes current column.

Please help!
Thank you!

Here is the gen_hcfa_1500.inc.php file I found in the system.

hi @luminosity, can you retry after you patch? https://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/OpenEMR_Patches

Yes, it worked!

The only problem is at the item #1. OpenEMR automatically check the last option “OTHER (ID#)” box in the HCFA 1500 form. Did I do something to generate the result like that? The 3rd box from the right “GROUP HEALTH PLAN (ID#)” is the one we want to have. What do I need to do in order to have that box checked?

Thanks for your help!

nice :slight_smile: for item #1 under admin->practice->insurance cos. choose the correct payer type and then it will populate the correct box

I originally chose “commercial healthcare company” and it did not work. It ends up I had to chose “blue cross and blue shield” to make it. But that insurance does not belong to BCBS system.

Anyway… the right box was checked eventually.
Thanks!

Nice @luminosity, ok, will take a look at the code to see why it doesn’t like commercial.
