Practical Workflow Guidance
- Run a 270/271 eligibility check before visits, then review returned coverage details and follow up through your normal payer process when results are unclear.
- Complete the payer’s enrollment paperwork before setting up ERA expectations; check enrollment status first if 835 remittances do not appear.
- Use the payer’s approved alternative process for claim submission because 837P, 837I, and 837D transactions are unavailable in Hero EMR.
- Use the payer’s alternative process for claim status because 276/277 transactions are not supported in Hero EMR.
- Arrange EFT separately if needed; Hero EMR does not support EFT or combined ERA and EFT for this payer.
Common questions
Does Hero EMR support eligibility checks for this payer?
Yes. Eligibility and benefits are available electronically through the 270/271 transaction.
Can I receive an ERA from this payer in Hero EMR?
Yes, but only after the practice completes the payer enrollment required for ERA. If enrollment is incomplete, the 835 remittance will not be available through this connection.
Can I submit claims to this payer through Hero EMR?
No. Professional, institutional, and dental claim transactions, 837P, 837I, and 837D, are not supported, so use a separate approved submission workflow.
Why cannot I check claim status or use EFT for this payer?
Hero EMR does not support claim status transactions 276/277, EFT, or combined ERA and EFT for this payer. Use separate payer-approved processes for status checks and funds transfer.
