CCP Chargeback Type
A CCP Chargeback record represents a credit card charge that has been contested. It can be negative (a reversal of a previously posted credit card payment) or positive (an overturn of a previous reversal; the credit card transaction will now be paid).
A CCP Chargeback record is created when athenahealth receives notification from Elavon of a disputed credit card charge.
This type of remittance record is created to ensure accurate posting of patient credit card transactions. If the remittance record is assigned to athenahealth, athenahealth will follow up with Elavon and will attempt to process the record against the patient's account. You do not need to work this remittance record at this time. We are working to resolve it for you.
You can search for these remittance records on the Find Unpostables page by searching for this remittance record type. You can then reconcile the chargebacks on your merchant bank statement to the postings in athenaOne.
Note: athenahealth identifies and voids the originating transaction. The transaction appears as an athenaMailbox deposit.
American Express CCP Chargeback records are created in the same manner as other CCP chargebacks. However, due to American Express's policy to not work with a third party, athenahealth is unable to process this record on your behalf. An American Express CCP Chargeback record is identified by athenahealth in our initial review. Once identified, athenahealth will place the record in the practice's responsibility. Use your resources with American Express to obtain the original transaction and cardholder details and remove the credit card posting from the patient's account.
athenahealth has a direct communication line with Elavon Merchant services. This line informs athenahealth of payments processed, payments debited, and fee notifications. On occasion athenahealth receives chargebacks associated with a non-athena merchant ID number (MID). athenahealth identifies these chargebacks in our initial review of the record. After these chargeback records are identified, athenahealth places the record in your responsibility for review and closure.
In some cases, the posting of the credit card payment has already been voided by a practice user. athenahealth identifies these postings in our initial review of the record. Once identified, athenahealth places the record in your responsibility for review and record closure.
athenahealth reviews positive CCP Chargeback records and attempts to reconcile the chargeback on your merchant bank statement to the posting in athenaOne. If athenahealth determines that you already applied the credit amount to the claim/patient account in question, we will return the record for your review using the event "CCP Chargeback/Practice review required." Please review the associated claim/patient account identified within the note sent from athenahealth to verify that the credit was indeed applied by a practice user. If so, void the credit in question and return the remittance record to athenahealth for processing.
