Common RARC pairings
RARCs (Remittance Advice Remark Codes) provide the specific reason detail alongside CARC 129 on the 835 electronic remittance. These are the RARCs seen most often with this CARC.
| RARC | Meaning |
|---|---|
| MA36 | Missing/incomplete/invalid patient name. |
| MA130 | Your claim contains incomplete and/or invalid information, and no appeal rights are afforded because the claim is unprocessable. Please submit a new claim with the complete/correct information. |
| N48 | Claim information does not agree with information received from other insurance carrier. |
