Fiscal pend is a process that keeps to-be-paid claims from paying in a particular payment cycle.
You use Fiscal Pend in the Adjudication function of Claims to set up the criteria the ND MMIS uses to identify claims to be fiscally pended. North Dakota will determine the criteria and payment cycle to fiscally pend claims. The claims identified by the process will remain in to-be-paid status until the next payment cycle. Fiscal pend is typically used at the end of the fiscal year when funds are limited.
Rank defines the order of precedence ND MMIS is to use for evaluating a fiscal pend criteria. The lower the numerical value assigned to the rank, the higher its precedence. This means a fiscal pend criteria with a rank value of 20 is evaluated after a fiscal pend criteria with a rank of 10.
You cannot edit fiscal pend criteria if a claim in the payment cycle has been fiscally pended using the criteria.
You cannot delete fiscal pend criteria if the beginning date has passed. A beginning date in the past indicates ND MMIS may have used the fiscal pend criteria in processing claims. You can void the criteria if it is no longer valid.
