Claim Submission: Electronic Claims
Electronic Claims are claims submitted electronically through a Plan-approved electronic billing system software vendor or clearing-house. Completion of electronic claim submission requirements can speed claim processing and prevent delays.
If you use EDI, you must include:
- Billing Provider Name
- Rendering Provider
- Legal Name
- License Number (if applicable)
- Medicare Number (if applicable)
- Federal Provider Tax ID Number
- Medi-Cal ID Number (if applicable)
- National Provider Identifier (NPI)
We cannot be responsible for claims never received. Providers must work with their vendors to ensure files are successfully submitted to us. Failure of a third party to submit a claim to us may risk the Providers claim being denied for untimely filing if those claims are not successfully submitted during the filing limit.
Claim Submission: Paper Claims
Paper claims are scanned for optimal processing and recording of data provided; therefore, even paper claims must be legible and provided in the appropriate format to ensure scanning capabilities. The following paper claim submission requirements can speed claim processing and prevent delays:
- Use the appropriate form type for submission
- Use black or blue ink; do not use red ink, as the scanner may not be able to read it
- Use the Remarks field for messages
- Do not stamp or write over boxes on the claim form
- Send the original claim form to us and retain the copy for your records
- Separate each individual claim form. Do not staple original claims together, as we would consider the second claim an attachment and not an original claim to be processed separately
- Information is typed within the designated area of the field. Be sure the type falls completely within the text space and is properly aligned with corresponding information. If using a dot matrix printer, do not use draft mode since the characters generally do not have enough distinction and clarity for the optical character reader to accurately determine the contents
