Enrollment requirements
- Electronic remittance (ERA 835): one click enrollment, typically takes weeks
Workflow guidance
- Send 837I or 837P claims according to the setting, then use 276/277 transactions to check claim status.
- Use 270/271 for eligibility and benefits, but handle coordination-of-benefits information through a separate process.
- Complete payer enrollment before setting up 835 ERA workflows; use another remittance process while enrollment is pending.
- Route dental 837D claims, EFT, and 275 attachments through a separate channel because they are not supported here.
- Do not expect a combined ERA and EFT transaction; plan separate remittance and payment workflows.
