A new form of the asymmetric energy functional for multireference coupled cluster (MRCC) theories is discussed from the point of view of an energy expansion in a quasidegenerate situation. The resulting expansion for the exact electronic energy can be used to define the non-iterative corrections to approximate MRCC approaches. In particular, we show that in the proposed framework the essential part of dynamic correlation can be encapsulated in the so-called correlation Hamiltonian, which in analogy to the effective Hamiltonian, is defined in the model space (

${\cal M}_0$
M0⁠). The proper parametrization of the exact/trial wavefunctions leads to the cancellation of the overlap-type numerators and to a connected form of the correlation Hamiltonian and size-extensive energies. Within this parametrization, when the trial wavefunctions are determined without invoking a specific form of the MRCC sufficiency conditions, the ensuing correction can be universally applied to any type of the approximate MRCC method. The analogies with other MRCC triples corrections to MRCC theories with singles and doubles (MRCCSD) are outlined. In particular, we discuss the approach, which in analogy to the Λ-Mk-MRCCSD(T) method [F. A. Evangelista, E. Prochnow, J. Gauss, H. F. Schaefer III, J. Chem. Phys.132, 074107 (2010)], introduces an approximate form of the triply-excited clusters into the effective and correlation Hamiltonians. Since the discussed corrections can be calculated as a sum of independent reference-related contributions, possible parallel algorithms are also outlined.
