Rejection Details

Tebra Validation Error
This rejection indicates the claim includes a procedure (CPT/HCPCS) code with an National Drug Code (NDC) number in the incorrect format.
Note: Since claims rejected within Tebra are not forwarded to the clearinghouse, timely filing cannot be generated for the submission until validation errors have been corrected and the claim resubmitted.
