Adjustments to Paid Claims
After review of both the claim and the Explanation of Benefits (EOB) Remittance Advice Report, a provider may determine that a claim needs to be adjusted. Providers may file adjustment requests to:
- Correct billing or processing errors.
- Correct inappropriate payments (overpayments and underpayments).
- Supply additional information that may affect the amount of reimbursement.
Adjustments are classified in two separate categories, check-related (refund) or non-check related, and further categorized as full or partial. Refer to Chapter 9 of the Provider Billing Manual for more information.
