Rebilling - Resubmissions and Adjustments
Once a claim has been exported, it is either accepted by the Payer, or returned to the Agency due to an issue or discrepancy. If a Payer rejects a claim, the Agency can document the actions taken to either resubmit it, or ultimately void the claim. If the Agency modifies the rejected claim and resubmits it, it is defined as an Adjustment. If the Agency chooses to stop persuing reimbursement for a claim, then it becomes a Void. Completed the following steps to adjust or void a claim.
