Can You Edit? Yes, you will have the ability to edit some fields But...
You can only edit these fields:

- Write-offs
If you make a mistake or change your mind, you can restore the ERA back to its original version.
Note: Manual edits made within the ERA Center are user-controlled and aren’t validated by ChiroSpring, so make sure any adjustments you make are accurate.
What Happens with Errors?
ERAs with issues are flagged automatically.
Open the ERA to see exactly where the problem is it’ll be highlighted for you.
Common issues include:
- Deleted or mismatched procedure codes
- Incorrect billed amounts
- Other mismatches between ERA and claim
To fix these, you’ll want to update the claim itself, not the ERA. Or if it's a claim that is not in ChiroSpring 360 you can process and complete the ERA without fixing and that payment detail will not post anywhere. You may need to manually post if its from other software.

Each ERA includes a full history:
- When it was uploaded
- When it was processed or unprocessed
- Who made changes and what was changed
