Deferred Compensation Withholding Type

 

The Deferred Compensation Withholding Amount remittance record is created when an amount is withheld from payment and deposited in the provider's designated account for deferred compensation. Claims are paid; however, either no check is cut, or the cut check does not equal the paid claim amount.

 

This remittance record type is created for reconciliation purposes to balance and close the corresponding payment batch. It is reserved primarily for Medicaid­AR (Arkansas).

 

These records are open to the practice for review and closure upon creation.
