Offsetting Against Future Claims

If the provider has not reimbursed HPSJ for the overpayment within sixty (60) days from the date it receives the written notice of HPSJ’s identified overpayment, or denial of written dispute, then HPSJ will provide written notice of the intent to offset. * HPSJ has also extended the option for the provider to elect to have overpayment (s) repaid through the “offset” process, and avoid paying by check by submitting the Offset Request Form.

We will not review and will send back excessive documentation and will only cause a delay in processing.
