Posting Remittances

After you process all the claims for a remittance and apply the entire payment amount, you can post the remittance from the Remittance Details window.

  1. On the top menu bar in Encompass, click Claim Management and select Claim Management.
  2. On the top menu bar in Claim Management, click Process Payments and select Electronic Remittance Payment.
  3. Search for a remittance. For more information on searching for remittances, go to Searching for Remittances (ERA).
  4. Click the link for the remittance in the Remittance # column.

    The Remittance Details screen opens.

  5. Review the claims on the Underpaid and Overpaid tabs and make any required adjustments.
  6. Click Post Remittance.
    You can click the Post Remittance button only if all the claims for the remittance have been applied and the outstanding amount displayed above the status bar is $0.

    Encompass posts payments for the remittance and changes the status to Posted. If the remittance includes more than 150 claims, Encompass assigns a temporary Posting status to the remittance and posts payments for the remittance at a scheduled time as part of an integration. After posting the payments, Encompass changes the status of the remittance to Posted.
