Episode Status - Episode Status determines which clients are selected for inclusion in the 270. Use the drop-down list to make a selection. Multiple selections may be made.

Payers - Use the drop-down list to select the Payer or Payers for which a 270 submission will be created. Again multiple selections may be made.
