Duplicate claim edits
The Claim Edit Configuration screen defines the control of claims submitted to Smart Claims Engine for Healthcare for processing. This configuration screen also lets you create the logic used in the exact duplicate and suspect duplicate edit processing.
Duplicate claim checking logic is available in the ClaimIdentifier level and ClaimLineIndex level when the claim is chargeable, reporting, or a subrogating claim. Duplicate edits are available at both the claim and claim line levels.
You can configure the duplicate claim edits after configuring the claim type.
Currently, Smart Claims Engine for Healthcare processes the following four types of claims: Professional, Outpatient, Inpatient and Dental. To adjudicate these claim types, Smart Claims Engine for Healthcare uses the following three process identifiers:
- Chargeable/Billing
- Reporting/Encounter
- Subrogation/Reclamation
The following table describes Duplicate Claims Edits information.

| Minimum Weight for Possible Match | Enter a number to calculate the total of "Weight" amounts that represents the minimum amount for a Possible Duplicate Claim or Claim Line. |
| Maximum Duplicate Claim Results | This is the maximum number of duplicates that will be reported with the event. |
