RARC N699: Payment Adjusted Under PQRS Incentive Program
What This Means
Payment has been adjusted based on the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) incentive or penalty. This typically reflects a 2% reduction applied to the Medicare allowable amount for not meeting quality reporting requirements. Check your PQRS reporting status, ensure quality measures are being submitted correctly, and contact CMS if you believe the penalty was applied in error.
