Enrollment requirements

Plan Your Workflow
- Complete payer enrollment before submitting 837P or 837I claims, or enabling ERA 835 in your billing workflow.
- Run standard 270/271 eligibility checks and 276/277 claim-status checks; flag coordination-of-benefits requests because COB 271 is unavailable.
- Reconcile payments with ERA 835 after enrollment; plan a separate payment process because EFT and combined ERA plus EFT are unavailable.
- Route dental claims and attachments through a separate process because 837D and 275 are unavailable in this connection.
Common questions
Do I need enrollment to submit claims or receive ERA?
Yes. 837P professional claims, 837I institutional claims, and ERA 835 are supported only after your practice completes payer enrollment.
Can I check eligibility and claim status electronically?
Yes. Standard eligibility and benefits use 270/271, and claim status uses 276/277. The coordination-of-benefits 271 transaction is not available.
Does this payer support ERA or EFT?
ERA 835 is supported after payer enrollment, but EFT and the combined ERA plus EFT option are unavailable.
Can I submit dental claims or attachments electronically?
No. Dental claims through 837D and attachments through 275 are not available in this connection.
