IMPORTANT EOP (REMITTANCE ADVICE) NOTICE FOR PROVIDERS:
Effective 1/1/2012 providers need to obtain EOP information from the CSHCS web portal. We will not be able to provide EOP information over the telephone. The CSHCS program has previously sent 2 notifications to providers that the program will no longer send a paper EOP (for paid or denied claims) to providers after 12/31/2011. If you have not already done so, please enroll in the web portal now by clicking on the Web Portal link to the left of this page and completing the short enrollment form. Please be sure any third party billers that you would like to have access to the web portal information are also listed on your enrollment form. The Web Portal will allow providers to view and/or print EOPs and check claim & enrollment status. Another option would be to contact our EDI team at 1-800-475-1355, option 5, then option 1 to inquire about receiving the 835 Electronic Remittance Advice.
