Multiple Choice

Reason codes and __________ codes are built as ______ records.

Reason codes describe why a payer adjusted or denied a claim, while remark codes provide extra context about that response. In this system, both types of codes are stored together as a single record type called RMC records, standing for Remittance/Remark Code records. This naming standardizes how explanations accompany line items and how they appear on remittance advice and patient statements. The other options don’t align with the system’s terminology: notes or comments aren’t the accepted pairing here, and the designated record type is RMC, not alternatives like NMC, CRC, or RMCX.
