Resubmission Codes

October 31st, 2018

What is a resubmission code?

  • A resubmission code is used to notify a carrier that the claim was either a corrected or replacement claim.

How do I add a resubmission code to my claim?

  • To add a resubmission code to a claim, the claim would have to have been sent electronically at least one time and not have any payments associated with it.
    • To activate this, you would select your patient and then click on Claim Correction Reprint.
    • Highlight the claim in question and it will allow you to check off either Code 6 - Adjustment of Prior Electronic Claim or Code 7 - Replacement of a Prior Electronic Claim.

  • After you select one of the two options you will receive a box asking if you would like to either replace or adjust the claim.

   

  • After you say YES, you will be asked for the original claim reference number. This is located on the original EOB from the carrier and can be called CCN, ICN, etc.  Enter the claim number and then select Process.

  


  • Make the corrections that are need to the claim. Click Re-Process and then select Yes to Resubmit the claim.

       

  • The claim history will show the Code which code was used .  That the claim was corrected, and if it was added to the future listing (2Go=Insurance).

  • No, a resubmission code can only be used on a claim without any payments.
