What is the term for unpaid claims that fail to meet certain data requirements?

The term for unpaid claims that fail to meet certain data requirements is "Claims Rejections." This term specifically refers to situations where claims do not meet the necessary criteria for processing due to issues such as incomplete information, missing documentation, or errors in coding. When claims are rejected, they are not processed by the payer and must be corrected and resubmitted for consideration.

In contrast to claims rejections, claims denials typically occur after the claim has been evaluated by the payer and determined not to be payable due to issues like policy exclusions or lack of medical necessity. Claim resolutions refer to the process of addressing or settling claims, while financial denials specifically refer to claims that are denied based on financial reasons, usually involving terms and conditions of the insurance policy rather than data completeness. Thus, claims rejections precisely capture the scenario of unpaid claims due to unmet data requirements.
