UHC Community Care is auditing charts from 2020-2023. They have determined through their audit that some of the charges that we submitted do not support the level of CPT that was billed. I am under the understanding that we cannot even go back and submit corrected claims to only have a portion of the $ returned due to the fact that it is past any timely filing requirement. #1 Is it common practice for an audit company, ADVIZE, to request payment back to them? Usually we have seen payment sent back in the form of recoupment. #2 How far back and insurance companies go when auditing? Any help/advice would be appreciated.
 
It is payors' discretion's process. But you still have an option to dispute legit services.
"I am under the understanding that we cannot even go back and submit corrected claims to only have a portion of the $ returned due to the fact that it is past any timely filing requirement. #1 Is it common practice for an audit company"
Here is how:
1) Correct claim and resubmit; communicate your process with provider representative;
2) Claim will be denied for TF;
3) Contact IC's provider representative to waive TF denial for corrected claim and provide all necessary supportive documentation and your mitigation steps timely taken.

Kindest regards,
