Post PR (Patient Responsibility) Codes

Post PR (Patient Responsibility) Codes

Post a PR Transaction Code instead of a CO 

In some cases, the balance from the Primary Insurance needs to go to the Secondary Insurance for payment consideration, but a Primary CO adjustment code will write off the balance.

 

Example:

The Primary Insurance adjudicated a CO123 which would write off the Balance.

  1. On the Manage Electronic Remittance Item screen, select the Post Expert button.

  1. In the Pop-up, select the CO Code that needs to be deleted.

  1. Select the OK button.

  1. In the Transaction Code field, enter a PR Transaction Code, such as PR2. You can also use the original Code number with the PR, such as PR123 if it is available.

  1. Enter the Amount.

  1. Select Save[F2].
