Children's Long-Term Support (CLTS) Claims Attachments and Instructions
The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) and the Children's Long-Term Support (CLTS) program now require providers to add attachments to claims with specific service codes. When providers submit claims using certain codes, an itemized invoice with a description of the item or supply being purchased must be attached. Service codes that require an itemized invoice are:
A9999–Miscellaneous DME supply or accessory, not otherwise specified
E1399–Durable medical equipment, miscellaneous
T5999–Supply, not otherwise supplied
Claims that do not receive the required attachment(s) will pend for seven days before being denied.

When submitting a claim for one of the codes listed above, after filling out the Claim Panel, follow these steps to attach the required documentation:
- Click on the Attachment Panel.
