Article summary

Claim Adjustment Reason Codes (CARCs) are standard codes used in the healthcare industry to communicate why a claim or service line was paid differently than it was billed. These codes provide a standardized way to convey information about adjustments made to a healthcare claim. The purpose of CARCs is to explain the reasons for any discrepancies between the amount billed by a healthcare provider and the amount paid by the payer (such as an insurance company or government program).

When a healthcare claim is submitted, it undergoes a review process by the payer to determine the appropriate reimbursement amount. If adjustments are made to the claim, one or more Claim Adjustment Reason Codes are assigned to provide clear and concise explanations for the changes. These codes are typically three-character alphanumeric strings.

Some common scenarios for using Claim Adjustment Reason Codes include denials, partial payments, and adjustments for contractual agreements between providers and payers. By using standardized codes, the healthcare industry aims to improve communication between different entities involved in the claims processing cycle and reduce ambiguity in understanding the reasons for claim adjustments. This standardization helps streamline administrative processes and facilitates more efficient communication between healthcare providers, payers, and other stakeholders in the industry.

Below are some common Claim Adjustment Reason Codes you may see for an Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA).
