What MA67 means
An informational alert that this remittance line corrects a claim processed earlier, so posting must reflect both.
This remark tells you the payer is adjusting a claim it already processed. You will often see a reversal of the original payment and a new payment on the same or a later remittance.
It is an alert, not a denial. Match the correction to the original claim so the account balance is posted correctly.
Common causes
- You sent a corrected or replacement claim.
- The payer reopened the claim on its own to fix a pricing or processing error.
- A coverage update changed how the original claim should have been paid.
What to do next
- Find the original claim and its posting on the account.
- Post the reversal and the new payment together so the balance is accurate.
- Check whether the correction created a credit or a new balance to follow up.
