Requesting Automatic Offset on Overpaid Part B Claim

According to Trailblazer.com Effective immediately, TrailBlazer Part B will again offer the service of automatic offset for demanded overpayments. This service was discontinued in August 2009 because of budget and workload constraints; however, recent system changes have made the process of automatic offset very efficient.
A provider/supplier may request TrailBlazer automatically offset any identified overpayments by mailing a written request to:

TrailBlazer Health Enterprises, LLC
Attn: Part B Debt Collection & Referral
3101 S. Woodlawn
Denison, TX 75020

The request for automatic offset may be for only one claim or the provider/supplier may request TrailBlazer always automatically offset overpayments.
The written request must clearly indicate if the provider/supplier is requesting TrailBlazer to offset all overpayments or only one particular overpayment.

The benefit to automatic offset is that recoupment begins immediately, reducing or eliminating the amount of interest assessed. If recoupment of the overpayment is satisfied within 30 days, the provider/supplier will be charged no interest.
When the provider/supplier requests to have overpayments automatically offset, TrailBlazer will issue a demand letter explaining the overpayment. Providers/suppliers will continue to have all appeal rights and may appeal the overpayment if they disagree with the determination.
Providers/suppliers that receive a demand letter and wish TrailBlazer to put the overpayment into automatic offset will need to notify TrailBlazer immediately as interest begins assessing 30 days from the date of the demand letter. Fax these types of requests to:

Attn: Part B Debt Collection & Referral
(903) 463-0615
