EFT/ERA
To register: After you receive your first CPR payment via ECHO Health VCard, you have the option to enroll in EFT/ERA by contacting ECHO Provider Support at 888-492-0032 or enrolling online at: enrollments.echohealthinc.com/ · If a provider enrolls for EFT through this link:
enrollments.echohealthinc.com/EFTERADirect/EmblemHealth, there is no charge for EFT/ERA service. · Alternately, ECHO offers an "All Payer" service for a fee (per draft) which is a contracted percentage with the provider. The benefit to the provider is that once enrolled, their EFT choice applies regardless of the payer as long as it is processed by ECHO. The provider signs a contract agreeing to this before the first draft. EmblemHealth recommends the use of EFT/ERA because it can: · Improve your cash flow. · Reduce administrative expenses. · Match payments to remittances quickly and easily. · Manage the destination of your claims payments. · Manage user access
59

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO ASSIST A 29-I HEALTH FACILITY
· Throughout the presentation we have mentioned the ability to connect directly with the EmblemHealth Foster Care Liaison (FCL). The FCL will conduct one on one meetings after your provider training to share additional information and familiarize you with our clinical processes.
· At the time of the meeting, the FCL will share her direct contact information. However, we recommend for immediate assistance that the 29-I facilities work directly with the EmblemHealth Foster Care Liaison through this mailbox: Medicaid_Care_Coordination_@embl emhealth.com
