claims filing limit
In Pennsylvania, medical claims timely filing refers to the requirement for healthcare providers to submit insurance claims within a specific time frame after services are rendered. Typically, this window is 90 to 180 days, depending on the insurer's policies. Timely filing is crucial because claims submitted after this period may be denied, impacting reimbursement for the services provided. Providers must adhere to these deadlines to ensure they receive payment for their services.

Yes, subject to the limits in their policy. No. With most insurance policies, there is what is called a timely filing limitation. For my company; contracted providers have 6 months, and non-contracted providers have 12 months to submit the claim. If your primary insurance received the claim within timely filing, you may have the option of submitting the claim to your secondary with proof that it was filed in a timely manner. If that doesn't work you can always appeal the decision with the secondary or for that matter the primary insurance company. Policy holders are not responsible for claims that deny for timely filing.
