Definition

Provides information relating to new contributions to the compensation calculation. New contributions refer to amounts that have not yet been paid. If the compensation calculation is used when the current payment is created or updated, the payment is increased by these amounts.

The exact interpretation of this field depends on the following Compensation Calculation Item Categories:

  • Claim item

    The amount that this claim item will contribute towards a payment generated from the current compensation calculation. This is calculated as:

    Item evaluation MINUS amounts previously paid for this claim item.

  • Payment items
    • For payment items belonging to the current payment: The payment item amount
    • For payment items belonging to previous payments: Zero
  • Deductibles

    The amount by which the deductible exceeds all new contributions (total) to which this deductible applies. Otherwise zero appears here, meaning that this amount is never negative.

  • Compensation limits

    The amount by which the deduction caused by the limit exceeds the total new contributions to which this limit applies. Otherwise zero appears here, meaning that this amount is never negative.

Use

In cases where the total payment would be negative, the compensation calculation amounts are adjusted to make the total zero.

For example, if the current payment has an initial value of $-100, then $100 is added to this payment. This $100 is distributed across the deductions with the help of this value. The added amount is applied in order of the highest value for this field first, followed by the field with the next highest value, and so on.

Example

Dependencies

The value of this field is calculated from the lower-level nodes in the compensation calculation. It does not take into account any deductibles and deductions made for limits that have already been applied. For this reason it should not be treated as an exact value.
