Platform

Denials and underpayments, each with its own workflow.

Liquidity Health matches every remittance to the claim it answers. Denials go to a recovery queue with a suggested next step. Payments below what was owed go to their own review, backed by the remittance or your contract.

Denial Recovery

Four stages, one suggested next step per claim.

Every denied claim lands in New denial with the payer's reason explained. Your team records what it did, and the claim moves through Working / On hold and Resubmitted or Appealed - Payer pending to Resolved.

Denial reason

N382Remittance Advice Remark (RARC)

Missing/incomplete/invalid patient identifier

Something on the claim is missing, invalid, or internally inconsistent, so it could not be adjudicated as submitted.

Usually because: Wrong or missing modifier; invalid code for the DOS; NPI or taxonomy missing; diagnosis inconsistent with the procedure.

N211 explains the denial above

Alert: You may not appeal this decision

N211: this decision may not be appealed. Correct and resubmit instead.

Recommended action

Read the accompanying remark code - it names the exact field. Correct that element and submit a corrected claim rather than an appeal.

In practice: The remark code (N or M) tells you what is wrong. Fix it and resubmit as a corrected claim, not an appeal.

Responsibility: Provider. Appeal: No - correct and resubmit.

Work queue stage

4. Resolved · step 4 of 4

Claim A, after your team corrected the patient identifier and the payer reprocessed it.

Root causes

Spot repeated denial reasons across claims.

Open denials are grouped by payer and reason code. When several claims share a reason, your team can address the underlying issue instead of working each claim from scratch.

Patient balance

Verify responsibility before billing the patient.

A denied amount is not automatically the patient's. Balances that may belong to the patient are checked for coverage and eligibility first, and only then become statement-ready.

The payer assigned this balance to the patient. Send the statement.

Routing follows the remittance group code: PR moves money to the patient; CO is contractual and generally cannot be billed to the patient.

Underpayments

Two ways to prove a short payment.

Some shortfalls are visible on the remittance itself: the payer owed more than it paid. Others need your contract: the payer allowed less than the contracted rate. Both follow their own four stages, from review to payment.

Questions

Pricing

You pay when money comes back. Not before.

No. It reads the 837 claim files and 835 or EOB remittances your systems already produce and works alongside them. Your team keeps submitting claims the way it does today.

A claim paid less than it should have been. Some are provable from the remittance alone, when the payer paid less than it owed on its own allowed amount. Others are found by comparing the allowed amount with your contracted rate for that code.

No. A finding is something to review. It counts as recovered only when the payer actually pays.

Your billing team. Liquidity Health explains each denial and suggests a next step; your team confirms it, acts, and records what happened, and the claim's stage follows.

They go to Patient balance, where coverage and eligibility are verified first. Only balances the remittance assigns to the patient become statement-ready.

Only for contract comparisons. Denial explanations and shortfalls visible on the remittance work without them.
