CO-112 Denial Code: Service not furnished directly / not documented

The payer concluded the service wasn't personally furnished to the patient or isn't supported in the record — an audit-flavored denial.

Why CO-112 happens

  • Incident-to or supervision requirements not met
  • Documentation doesn't show the billed service actually occurred

How to fix a CO-112 denial

  1. 1

    Appeal with records proving who performed the service and how

  2. 2

    If supervision rules were genuinely missed, write off and fix the workflow — do not rebill under another provider

How to prevent it

Audit incident-to and split/shared visit compliance quarterly.
