New HCFA 1500 Health Insurance Claim Form

Version 5425 has the modifications necessary to print the new HCFA 1500 insurance claim form.  We added “HCFA 1500 – 2014 (new)” as a new invoice format  under insurance companies.  We also kept the prior HCFA 1500 format which is labeled ” HCFA 1500 – 2005 (old).”  These same options are available as invoice format overrides when generating invoices.
