Every reason, with the usual fix
| Payer reason code | What it means | Usual fix | Claims | At stake |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50 Not medically necessary | The payer decided the service was not medically necessary. | Appeal with the visit note and any supporting records. | 4 | $862.40 |
| 185 Rendering provider not eligible | The rendering provider is not eligible to perform the service billed. | Check the provider enrollment with this payer. A credentialing gap is the usual cause. | 2 | $317.00 |
| 27 After coverage ended | The service date is after the patient coverage ended. | Verify eligibility for the service date and bill the plan that covered it. The patient can be billed only when the payer sends it as patient responsibility (group PR). | 1 | $283.20 |
| 29 Filing deadline passed | The claim reached the payer after its timely filing limit. | Appeal only with proof of timely submission; otherwise write it off. It cannot be billed to the patient. | 1 | $153.40 |
| 22 Another payer may be primary | Coordination of benefits: the payer believes another plan should pay first. | Update coverage order with the patient and bill the primary plan. | 1 | $132.60 |
