Reason Code 29 | Remark Code N211

Code Description
Reason Code: 29 The time limit for filing has expired.
Remark Code: N211 You may not appeal this decision.

 

Common Reasons for Denial

  • The time limit for filing has expired. Claims must be filed within one year of the date of service. If an act of nature, such as a flood, fire, or there are other circumstances outside of the supplier's control, you can appeal the timely filing, by providing this explanation.

Next Step

  • This denial cannot be appealed unless there was an act of nature, such as a flood, fire, or there are other circumstances outside of the supplier's control, then a Redetermination request may be submitted with all relevant supporting documentation. Noridian encourages Redeterminations/Appeals be submitted using the Noridian Medicare Portal.

How to Avoid Future Denials

  • Review the date of service prior to submitting the claim. All claims must be filed within one year of the date of service.
  • Reopenings must be submitted one year from initial determination date or after one year from receipt date due to overpayment via clerical error omissions
