Timely filing limits
How long do I have to file, by payer
Timely filing limits vary by contract, not just by payer. Where a payer publishes a default we cite it. Where none exists, we say so plainly rather than inventing a number: check your own participation agreement.

DenialPath provides billing and administrative guidance based on published CMS and X12 sources. It is not medical advice, not a coverage determination, and not a guarantee of payment. NCCI and MUE edits are republished quarterly and payer policies vary by contract. Always confirm against the payer's own current policy before submitting or appealing.
