Internal complaint is a claim resubmission type used in case when the provider does not agree with the payer decision on specific activities. Only disputed activities are sent with an internal complaint.
Claim resubmission can be created for a claim in Rejected By Payer or Partly Paid By Payer statuses.
Step 1. Select (Incomplete) value from Status drop-down list.
The search results grid appears.
Step 2. Set focus on any claim and click on Resubmit claim complaint link label.

You can set / modify the following data here:
(1) resubmission comment;
(2) attachment;
(3) amount to resubmit.

Step 3b. Click on Add file for resubmission link label. In the dialog appeared find the necessary file in .pdf format and click on Open button.
The file can represent medical report, lab results, prescription, authorization approval copy, purchase invoices or anything else the payer may request.
As a result, new options appear:
