You can submit a debit request to cancel a claim that was billed in error and has already been paid in full (the bill has a status of Completed). When you submit a debit request, MSP "takes back" the money if the claim was paid.
⚠️ Impotant: Bills have to be paid because you require the MSP file number when resubmitting for Debit requests.
When you submit a debit request through the CHR, the original claim is re-submitted with the submission code E.
📌 Notes:
You must include a note on the billing item(s) indicating why you are debiting the bill (for example, “Incorrect date of service”).
If you are re-billing the claim, but the service date is outside the 90 day limit, use submission code X and then, in the billing item note, indicate “Re-submission with matching Debit Request Record."
Do not submit a debit request if you disagree with MSP’s adjudication of a claim. Instead, submit a new claim with additional information in the billing item's notes, and the claim will be re-assessed.
