If Medicare or DVA claims have been stuck in “Pending” status for longer than usual, reset the claims and resubmit them. See below for step by step instructions on this.

The rules for resetting claims:

• For Medicare, claims must be Pending for more than 72hrs before resetting
• For DVA, claims must be Pending for more than 7 days before resetting

If the claim has not been pending for the aforementioned times, the Reset button will not display. 

Doublecheck your Medicare or DVA claims to ensure that the data you’re submitting e.g. Provider name and number, referral date, reference number, etc.. is correct before resubmitting the claim. This will minimise the risk of the claim being rejected.

Check the Online Claiming report via Reports > Administration > Online Claiming to track and reset “Pending” claims.

Resetting Claims from the Online Claiming Report:

1. Go to Reports.

3. When generating the report, ensure that you select claims with a Pending status.
