PR-1
Applied to your deductible
The plan allowed the claim but you owe this amount toward your deductible. Not an error by itself.
Official meaning (X12 code 1): Deductible amount.
Who pays
PR-1. Patient responsibility: the plan says this part is yours to pay (deductible, copay, coinsurance, or a non-covered service).
What to do
- Check the amount against your plan's deductible and what you've already paid this year.
- Make sure the provider billed the allowed amount, not the full charge.
