Prior to submitting insurance claims through EAC Submissions, two
steps must be undertaken for each Payer (carrier) you are sending
claims to.
Step-1: Determine EAC's Payer ID for that carrier and
include it in the claim submission
Step-2: Determine if the Payer requires any special
registration process and complete that process prior to
submitting claims for that Payer
Both steps are easily accomplished by selecting the appropriate
button for the type of carrier on the left. Find the carrier
and the Payer ID will be displayed as well as any requirements for
that Payer.
If you can't find the carrier you're looking for, please call us

A note about Payer ID's:
Every insurance plan has a unique Payer ID number that they
accept submissions under. A carrier, such as Noridian, may be
responsible for numerous insurance plans, each of which will have
its own Payer ID. For example, Noridian processes Medicare
Claims for numerous states and each state's Medicare plan has its
own Payer ID.
These numbers can change frequently, so EAC Submissions has
assigned its own ID number for each plan and will perform a look-up
for the current Payer ID that is required at the time of submission.
