About Write-Offs

A write-off is a financial transaction used to terminate an account receivable when it is deemed uncollectible. You can write-off all types of receivables.

Write-Off Process

For a write-off to occur, the State sends an accounting transaction request to Medical Services. The receivable is then accessed using the North Dakota MMIS Web Portal by the financial control number.

Once the account receivable is accessed, you must enter a reason code for the write-off.

When you save the write-off, the system sets the original A/R amount of the write-off to the balance amount of the original account receivable. Then the balance amount on the original account receivable is set to zero.
