If the claim triggers an edit check or rules, where is it sent?

When a claim triggers an edit check or rules, it must be corrected before it can proceed, so it’s directed to the claim error pool. Edits flag data problems (like invalid codes or missing fields), and sending the claim to the error pool allows staff to fix those issues and resubmit. The other places serve different purposes: the suspense queue holds claims waiting for additional information or actions to move forward but aren’t necessarily flagged as errors; the paid ledger tracks claims that have been paid; and the adjustment file records post-adjudication changes to payments.
