RARC MA61: Missing/incomplete/invalid social security number or health insurance claim number
The patient's Social Security Number or Medicare claim number on the form is missing or incorrect.
What this means for your claim
Medicare and many other payers use specific identifier formats. A formatting error, transposed digit, or missing number will cause this remark.
What to do next
- 1
Ask your provider to verify the subscriber ID or Medicare Beneficiary Identifier (MBI) on file.
- 2
Confirm your Medicare card or insurance card reflects the correct ID number.
- 3
Request a corrected claim submission after the identifier is verified.
