In the 837I IG, in the 2310A loop, Attending Physician Name segment, the field NM108 is required.  NM108 is the Identification Code Qualifier and has these options:
24    Employer's Identification Number
34    Social Security Number
XX    Health Care Financing Administration National Provider Identifier (required value if the National Provider ID is mandated for use.  Otherwise, one of the other listed codes may be used.)
 
We do not have social security numbers on file for our many physicians.  What is the meaning of the Employer's ID?  Is it the hospital's ID?
 
Thanks!
