Reason Code: U5111
Error Description:
Hospice: The hospice NOE or revocation (8xB) and start date matches a posted hospice election period start date current termination date and revocation indicator is other than zero. This is a duplicate revocation notice, or a claim has processed with occurrence code ‘23’ date of cancellation, or ‘42’ date of hospice revocation, which has caused the revocation information to be posted to the master record.
Avoiding/Correcting This Error
The 8xB (NOTR) transaction should only be submitted when the beneficiary revokes the hospice benefit or is discharged alive and there is no final claim in the system indicating termination of the hospice benefit. If the claim has already been filed with an occurrence code indicating the hospice benefit was terminated, the NOTR is not required.
