Procedure code or procedure rate count cannot be determined, or was not on file, for the date of service/provider

What Does This Code Mean?

The payer’s system has no rate on file for this code, provider, and date combination.

Common Causes

  • New or recently updated code not yet loaded into the payer's fee schedule
  • Provider's contract terms don't include a rate for this code

Recommended Next Steps

  1. Confirm with the payer whether the code should have a rate on file
  2. Resubmit once the rate is loaded, or escalate to contracting
