Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for overriding rejections of healthcare claim transactions. A healthcare claim transaction is received by a service provider from a healthcare provider computer and at least one edit is performed on the healthcare claim transaction. A rejection for the healthcare claim transaction is identified based at least in part on the at least one edit, and a message comprising an indication of the rejection is communicated to the healthcare provider computer. A reason for overriding the edit is received at an edit override web server from the healthcare provider computer, and override information for the rejection is generated based at least in part on the receipt of the override reason. The healthcare claim transaction is then reprocessed, and the generate override information is utilized to suppress the at least one edit during the reprocessing of the healthcare claim transaction.
