Remittance advice remark code

N522
Duplicate of a claim processed as a crossover claim

What N522 means

The claim was already forwarded to the supplemental payer automatically (crossover).

How to fix it

  1. Don't submit separately to the secondary payer
  2. Follow up on the crossover claim instead

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.
