Edit 00916
Referring Provider Profession Code Non-Numeric
HIPAA Claim Adjustment Reason Code: 16
Remark Code: N31
HIPAA Healthcare Claim Status Code: 143
Entity Identifier Code: DN
Potential Causes:
The Referring Provider License Type was reported with an Alpha character, and all License type codes are two digit numeric entries or no license type was entered and the first 2 characters of the License number were used as the License Type.
Solution:
Check to ensure that the License Number that is being entered is preceded by the two-digit, numeric, License Type. If entering a Provider ID number then no License type is required. Check the qualifier to ensure 1D is used for the Provider ID entry. Enter the data in the loop and the segment provided, and resubmit.
