Block 32 on CMS-1500 is used to capture which type of information?

• A. Service facility location information
• B. Provider's contact details
• C. Patient's employment
• D. Service date range

Answer: (A)

Block 32 captures the service facility location—the specific clinic, hospital, or place where the patient received care. This includes the facility’s name and address so the payer knows exactly where the service occurred and can route or audit the claim accordingly. It isn’t used for the provider’s personal contact details, the patient’s employment information, or the dates of service (those belong in other sections of the form).
