Claim Cancellation

Last updated: February 29, 2024

Claim Cancellation 


 

Cancelling a claim is only available for claims previously accepted by the MCO, indicated by successful processing of both EDI 999 and EDI 277 forms. Rejected forms mean the claim wasn't received, and no action is needed.  

A detailed note must be added, explaining the reason for the claim cancellation. This note is critical as it is reviewed by the insurance company. 

You will need the reference number from the ERA. If Ambiki has received the ERA directly, the interface would provide this for you. If the ERA was mailed to you, you will need to provide the reference number. 

 

To cancel a claim, ensure you are logged in to Ambiki and on the main dashboard:
