A method for repricing a reimbursement claim under at least one contract is provided herein. The method includes converting each contract into a series of contractual terms, where each contractual terms contains qualification codes, calculation codes and priority notes. The method than converts a claim into a series of claim lines, containing claim codes, unit numbers and corresponding charges for the claim codes. The method than begins to compare comparing each claim code, of the claim, against each qualification code, of each contractual term, of a contract and when a qualification code, of a contractual term, is satisfied by a claim code, of a claim line, the method identifies the contractual term as a matching contractual term associated to the claim line. Upon identifying all matching contractual terms, either to the claim line or the entire claim, the method will determine any priority conditions associated to the matching contractual terms, and eliminate any matching contractual terms that are excluded by the priority conditions. The method then calculates the reimbursement amount for the claim by determining the reimbursement charges for the non-excluded matching contractual terms. The method may then determine and make any adjustments depending upon any discount terms for the entire reimbursement amount.
