Workflow Considerations
- Use 270/271 for standard eligibility and benefits checks; do not expect a coordination-of-benefits response from this payer.
- Submit 837I immediately; complete payer enrollment before sending 837P claims.
- Enroll before relying on ERA 835; until then, plan manual remittance posting because EFT and ERA/EFT are unavailable.
- Track claims through your established process because 276/277 claim-status transactions are not supported.
- Use your established process for dental claims and attachments because 837D and 275 are unavailable.
Common questions

Yes, ERA (835) is supported after payer enrollment. EFT is not supported, and the combined ERA/EFT option is unavailable.
Can I check claim status electronically?
