In medical billing, a corrected claim is a resubmission of a healthcare claim with revised information to rectify errors in the original submission, ensuring accurate details for processing by the insurance payer.
- Navigate to the View/Edit Claim page by searching for the claim on the Search page.
- Go to the Type of Bill (TOB) field (FL04) and replace the third digit to "7".
- Proceed to enter the Document Control Number (DCN) or Claim Number field (FL64) for the corrected claim.
- Click the
button at the top of the screen. This will resubmit it as a corrected claim.
More Information
Medicare does not accept electronic corrected claims. If Medicare has adjudicated a claim, the appeals process would need to be used to request a correction.
