Medical Claims Adjustments (MADJ)
Due to staged implementations, Medical Claims Adjustments (MADJ) will be required. Further information will be provided in advance of any implementation of a Medical Claims Adjustment.
- Please also note that during the MADJ process, the claims processing system selects an entire claim and reprocesses it.
- A single claim can include multiple fee schedule codes and all codes will be reprocessed.
- Claims that were reprocessed with no change in payment will appear on the Remittance Advice with explanatory code '55-This deduction is an adjustment on an earlier account' and '57-This payment is an adjustment on an earlier account'. These two transactions will net out to zero with no payment impact but will report on the Remittance Advice for reconciliation purposes.
