Provider Manual

Clean claim and interest

Last Updated on August 18, 2025

Clean claim definition

A clean claim is complete if it is HIPAA compliant and on an accurate claim form. It should include all provider and member information, as well as records, additional information or documents to enable Security Health Plan to process the claim. A claim that does not meet the definition of a clean claim and requires investigation or additional documentation constitutes an unclean claim. The clean claim date is the date on which all such necessary information has been received.

Interest per product

Security Health Plan will pay interest to the extent that interest would be owed under Wisconsin Statutes Section 628.46. Please see below for product line and provider affiliation specifics. Interest will be calculated by Security Health Plan and paid on a per-claim basis. The amount paid per claim/claim line will be identified on the provider statement with ANSI code 225.
