WORKING CLAIMS

With Invalids & Rejects displayed I will bring my invalids to the top by sorting on the Status.

* All field headings with an asterisk allow for sorting.

Select my invalids & rejects.

Remember: On INVALID claims with a TESTER source you can simply double click on the error to take you to the general location of the problem.

INVALID CLAIMS

There are multiple ways

Read it in the column

Use the hover text

Or use the Right Click or Hot

Key “M” for message.

With the claim highlighted it will display all of the history for the claim in the Status

Messages section. Use the following steps to work Invalid Claims.

1.) Read the Error

Message

Fix Now: Add Last Name and Save

3.) When Valid set to Ready.

2.) Based on your workflow fix the claim

Fix In PM: Mark Claim Delete and fix it in the PM then resubmit.

REJECTED CLAIMS

“M”

Similar to the process of working an invalid claim you would highlight the rejected claim and view the response error to understand the issue. Once you have looked into the rejection then you will refer to your own workflow.
