  2. Here are some common occurrences of these claims and how to prevent these medical claim denials. Outdated Insurance Information: One of the most common mistakes would be providing information that is outdated and is no longer valid. Missing or Incorrect Information: This factor is another primary reason for denials of a claim. This aspect could be easily prevented by double-checking the data and cross-checking before entering it in the database. Authorization/ Pre-authorization required services: Some specific services require authorization or pre-authorization from agencies before availing them. For example, CT scans would require pre-authorization before being performed on the customer. Several other procedures also are necessary to be authorized. 7 Most Common Reasons Why Claims Get Denied http://www.247medicalbillingservices.com

  3. Change of/in insurance plan: Any change in insurance plans is also a factor in increasing medical billing denials. Claim requested at wrong company or location: This is a simple enough problem that could be avoided if the patient knows about the policy thoroughly. Services not granted and duplicate claims: The services that were not allowed to customer despite being mentioned in the plan are a cause of denial in some cases. Claim filed too late: This is a common cause of denial. If the claim is invalid due to the authorization timing out, claim expired, or policy does not cover the date on which the service was availed, then it is possible that the claim will be denied or rejected. 7 Most Common Reasons Why Claims Get Denied http://www.247medicalbillingservices.com
