# Where do RARC codes appear in API claim status and ERA responses?

**Question:** How are Remittance Advice Remark Codes (RARC) represented in Claim.MD API responses?

**Answer:** In Claim.MD API responses returned in **JSON or XML** format, RARC codes are included at the **claim level** within the `claim` array.

Each RARC code is returned in its own field, labeled sequentially as `remark_code_1`, `remark_code_2`, and so on. This structure allows multiple remark codes to be associated with a single claim in a single response.
