You can look up the insurance industry's standardized meaning of the Claim Adjustment Reason Codes (CARC) on X12's website below:
X12 Claim Adjustment Reason Codes site. code 132 is defined as "Prearranged demonstration project adjustment." and the CO indicates it is a contractual obligation on the provider's part to write-off the charges if they are contracted with the specific payer.

Hi! I know this is very old but we are now getting these adjustment codes. I am debating with my supervisor on how to handle. What did you do with these?

Hello, we were getting the same denial/adjustment First I called Medicare questioning CO-132 in one of our claims and rep let me know our provider was part of demonstration project (Professional and global options- ACO REACH) and advised to email ACOREACH@cms.hhs.gov , I suggest you guys call or sent an email questioning if your facility or provider is part of a demonstration project.
