Medicare Remit Easy Print (MREP) Annual Enhancement

CMS developed Medicare Remit Easy Print (MREP) software to help providers to transition from paper to electronic format of the remittance advice. MREP users can view and print the ERA in humanly readable format, and can send a hard copy remittance advice with their claims to payers after Medicare. Additionally, MREP users can run and download a number of special reports that have been added in response to enhancement requests from users. The current changes are:

• Revise the MREP remittance advice layout to remove the blank line after each set of Claim Line details and

• Revise the MREP remittance advice layout by adding the Claim Adjustment Reason Code (CARC) Adjustment Amount (CARC-AMT) to the fields subtotaled for each claim.
