Read, check and export 835 remittance files
Drop an ERA from your clearinghouse or payer. Remitgrid shows every payment, claim and service line with adjustment codes in plain English, checks that it all balances, and exports to Excel, CSV or PDF. It runs in your browser — PHI is never uploaded.
How it works
- Download the 835 (ERA) from your clearinghouse, payer portal or practice-management system.
- Drop it here. Payments, claims and lines appear instantly, with balancing checks and denials flagged.
- Export claims or service lines to CSV, print a readable remit, or (Pro) download the Excel workbook and denials worklist.
Why Remitgrid
For billers, practice managers, RCM teams and small clinics who need to read, check and export remittances without another portal.
Any 835 file
Medicare, Medicaid and commercial ERAs from your clearinghouse or payer portal. Any delimiters, one file or many transactions, with or without line breaks.
Checks that it balances
Lines, claims and payments are balanced to the cent, including provider-level adjustments (PLB). Anything off is flagged before you post.
Denials at a glance
Denied claims and lines, every CARC and RARC with a plain-English summary, and dollars by reason code.
Patient responsibility
Deductible, coinsurance and copay per claim, so patient statements match the payer.
Excel, CSV and PDF
Claims and service-line CSVs free up to 50 claims. Pro: a full Excel workbook, denials worklist and printable remits for any size.

FAQ
Is my 835 uploaded?
No. The file is read by JavaScript running in your browser tab; its contents — patient names, member IDs, claims — are never sent over the network or stored. You can verify this in your browser's developer tools (Network tab), or go offline after the page loads.
Is it HIPAA compliant?
Remitgrid never receives, stores or transmits your files, so no PHI reaches us. HIPAA compliance depends on how your organization handles the files and anything you download — use approved devices and storage, and check with your privacy or compliance officer.
Which files work?
X12 835 health care claim payment/advice files (version 005010X221A1 and most older ones), usually named .835, .edi, .txt, .era or .x12. Files with several payments, any delimiters, and with or without line breaks are supported. 837, 277 and 999 files are recognised and politely refused.
What do the balancing checks do?
For every service line, claim and payment, Remitgrid checks that billed − adjustments = paid, and that claims paid − provider-level adjustments = the check or EFT amount. It also checks segment counts and control numbers. Anything that doesn't add up is marked UNVERIFIED.
Are the code descriptions official?
No. They are short plain-English summaries written by Remitgrid. The official CARC and RARC wording is published by X12 at x12.org/codes, and payers apply codes according to their own policies.
What's free?
Viewing any 835 of any size, the balancing checks, denials view and reason summary are free. Claims and service-line CSVs and printing are free for files up to 50 claims. Pro removes the limit, opens many files at once, and adds the Excel workbook, denials worklist, adjustments and patient-balance CSVs.
