The 'Employer Name' field is associated with which Form Locator?

• A. FL66
• B. FL65
• C. FL69
• D. FL68

Answer: (B)

In UB-04, data fields are assigned to specific Form Locators to tell the payer where to read each piece of information. The Employer Name is placed in Form Locator 65. This locator is dedicated to capturing the patient’s employer name for billing and administrative purposes, such as workforce data that might affect processing. Placing the employer name in a different locator would misplace it in the payer’s system, potentially causing delays or errors in claims processing. The other locators listed correspond to different data elements (not the employer’s name), so they don’t fit for this field.
