Working instructions
- 1Record only batch-level operational control information; keep patient and claim details in the approved billing system.
- 2Capture control totals from the frozen or versioned released population before transmission.
- 3Do not treat generated, transmitted, received, transaction-accepted, claim-accepted, adjudicated, and paid as the same state.
- 4Assign missing and failed responses early enough to protect applicable filing requirements.
- 5Reconcile accepted, rejected, and unresolved counts to the original released claim count before closing the batch.
