EDI Enrollment
The Division of Health Care Financing (HCF) manages multiple medical
programs for needy individuals in the State of Utah, including Medicaid
and the Primary Care Network (PCN) Program. Medicaid administers
these programs and encourages electronic data interchange (EDI) as
a means to contain administrative costs. This page describes the
process for activating your EDI account with Medicaid.
Whether providers are currently sending EDI transactions or wish to start sending
transactions, an EDI account must be activated with Medicaid.
Providers must:
1. Become a member of the Utah Health Information
Network (UHIN) by
a. Signing the current Electronic
Commerce Agreement, and
b. Obtaining a UHIN Trading Partner Number* (TPN).
2. Complete one of the following Utah Medicaid Provider EDI Enrollment
applications:
a. E-form
(fastest and most reliable method for enrolling).
Providers have the responsibility to adequately test all business rules appropriate
to the provider type and specialty. When using a third party vendor (clearinghouse),
it is the obligation of the trading partner* to ensure the vendor has adequately
tested the business rules appropriate to each provider type and specialty.
*A provider submitting EDI transactions is considered a trading partner.
