Remittance advice remark code

N130
Consult plan benefit documents for restrictions

What N130 means

The service is limited by the patient's plan benefits.

How to fix it

  1. Review the plan's benefit limits
  2. Inform the patient about their coverage

Check the remark code (RARC) that came with the denial and the payer's own policy, since rules vary by payer and plan. This is a plain-English summary written by GetMax; the official code text is published by X12 at x12.org/codes.

Prevent it next time

Most denials are caused before the claim is sent. See 12 ways to reduce claim denials, or let our denial management team work them for you.
