Enrollment requirements
- Electronic remittance (ERA 835): one click enrollment, typically takes weeks
Plan your electronic workflow
- Run 270/271 eligibility and benefits checks during scheduling or before visits, and use the supported 271 coordination-of-benefits transaction when needed.
- Submit each claim with its matching transaction: 837D for dental, 837I for institutional, and 837P for professional services.
- Use 276/277 claim-status transactions to follow submitted claims instead of using a missing ERA as receipt confirmation.
- Complete payer enrollment before expecting 835 ERA files, and verify enrollment before investigating missing electronic remittance.
- Because EFT and 275 attachments are unavailable, plan payment and documentation workflows outside these electronic transactions.
