Overview

Learn how to send replacement claims and reversal (void) claims to payers.

Definitions:

Replacement: A claim that the payer paid incorrectly, or something about the claim has now changed (staff, units, amount, code, DX, etc.), and you need the payer to reprocess the claim in its correct state.
Reversal (Void): A claim that was previously paid or processed and now you need the payer to either recoup the previous payment, or void all previous submissions of the claim entirely.
