Practice Workflow
- Run 270/271 eligibility and benefits checks before visits, and use 276/277 transactions when claim-status follow-up is needed.
- Submit institutional claims as 837I and professional claims as 837P; handle dental claims through a separate accepted workflow.
- Complete payer enrollment before expecting ERA 835 files; plan a non-ERA remittance workflow until enrollment is complete.
- Use a separate payment workflow because EFT and combined ERA/EFT are unavailable.
- Keep an alternative document-submission workflow for attachments because 275 transactions are unavailable.
