Enrollment requirements
- Electronic remittance (ERA 835): one click enrollment, typically takes weeks
Workflow guidance
- Run 270/271 eligibility and benefits checks, 271 coordination-of-benefits transactions, and 276/277 claim-status inquiries without waiting for enrollment.
- Complete payer enrollment before sending 837P or 837I claims or setting up 835 ERA.
- If enrollment is pending, keep claim submission and remittance work in the current workflow while using supported status and eligibility transactions.
- Plan a separate process for 837D, 275 attachments, EFT, and combined ERA/EFT because Hero EMR does not support them for this payer.
Common questions
Which transactions can we use before enrollment?
Before enrollment, this payer supports 270/271 eligibility and benefits, 271 coordination of benefits, and 276/277 claim status. 837P, 837I, and 835 ERA require enrollment first.
Can we submit professional or institutional claims electronically?
Yes. This payer supports 837P professional and 837I institutional claims after the practice completes payer enrollment.
Is ERA available, and can payments be sent by EFT?
ERA is supported through 835 after enrollment. EFT and the combined ERA/EFT option are not available through Hero EMR for this payer.
Does this payer support dental claims and electronic attachments?
No. 837D dental claims and 275 attachments are not available through Hero EMR for this payer.
