Some claims on the Claims page show a "Why is this claim stuck?" flag next to their status. It means the claim isn't moving on its own right now — click the flag for a one-line explanation. This article covers each case: what happened, what Taiga is doing, and whether you need to do anything.
Waiting for provider — action needed from your team
We're waiting on documentation or an answer from someone at your practice — commonly a chart clarification, a signature, or missing visit details. Look for a message from Taiga about the claim; responding is what unblocks it. These claims also show Needs your attention as their owner and appear on the Queues page.
Missing information
Something required for a clean submission is missing. Taiga is tracking it down; if we need anything from your team, we'll reach out directly.
Rejected
The claim was turned back before the payer adjudicated it — usually a data or formatting issue like a bad member ID or an enrollment edit. A rejection is not a denial: nothing has been refused, the claim just didn't get through the front door. Taiga corrects and resubmits these.
Denied
The payer adjudicated the claim and refused payment. Taiga's ops team works a denial resolution — appealing or rebilling as appropriate. You don't need to act unless we reach out for supporting documentation.
Paid incorrectly
Payment arrived but doesn't match what's expected — underpaid against the contract, or misapplied. Taiga files an appeal or correction with the payer.
ERA requires review
The payer's electronic remittance arrived and needs a human look before it posts — unusual adjustment codes, split payments, and the like. Taiga's ops team reconciles it; no action needed from you.
What "stuck" doesn't mean
A claim sitting in Submitted or Awaiting payer isn't flagged — payers routinely take weeks to adjudicate, and that's normal in-flight time, not stuck. Claims with no payer response for an unusually long time get flagged internally as stale and receive proactive follow-up.
If a flagged claim worries you, open it and check the Activity timeline and Tasks — they show exactly what's happening — or email [email protected] with the claim ID.
