The link in the OP is not applicable.
Administration/Practice/Insurance Numbers should hold the NPI for the rendering physician, which goes into the unshaded portion of Box 24J.
I think the rejections resulted from the shaded part of Box 24I & 24J being empty. See attachment.
Shaded 24I or ID Qual. should contain G2. Shaded 24J is usually the non-NPI or legacy number for the rendering physician. See this.
Uncomment the snippets for other insurers, so ID Qual. & legacy number will not populate.
It would be a lot easier to send e-claims, see this.
If the practice is not using a clearinghouse, such as Office Ally; be aware of total segment counts when sending 837P’s.
