What subscriber number do I enter from MA form 1099-HC for a Dependent?
I am trying to enter Form 1099-HC MA Health Care Coverage:
1. The screen "Tell us about Jane's private health insurance" requests the subscriber number (1099-HC, Box 5) but there are two different subscriber numbers shown on the form, one in Box 5 (Myself) and another for my dependent which is NOT in box 5 but in a different section of the form intended for the dependent. Both Box 5 and the other non-Box 5 fields are titled "Subscriber number" on the 1099-HC but they are really "Member ID" numbers, and the subscriber (me) is the one in Box 5. There is only one "Subscriber" on this health plan but two "members" and two different "Member ID's".
Should I enter the same BOX 5 Subscriber number for both individuals or should I enter two different numbers (Box 5 and the other non BOX 5) subscriber numbers?
2. I cannot fit the entire name of the Insurance Company in the field for Box 1, is it OK that it's chopped?
