Resumen del artículo

Remittance Advice Remarks Codes (RARCs) are standardized codes used in healthcare billing to provide additional explanations for claim adjustments, denials, or payment delays. They accompany Electronic Remittance Advices (ERAs) or Standard Paper Remittance Advices (SPRs) to clarify payment decisions and guide providers on next steps. Often paired with Claim Adjustment Reason Codes (CARCs), RARCs can indicate informational messages, correction needs, or requests for additional documentation. Examples include codes explaining bundled services or patient ineligibility. These codes help streamline communication between insurers and healthcare providers.
