If you receive paper remittances, the remittance will be printed according to how the claims were submitted. If only an NPI is submitted, the submitted NPI is returned and the Medicaid Provider ID on the remit and check is the Medicaid Provider ID in the crosswalk that’s associated with the submitted NPI. Depending on your enumeration strategy, the Medicaid Provider ID may not match your Medicaid Provider ID. If both a Medicaid Provider ID and NPI are submitted electronically then the system returns both the submitted Medicaid Provider ID and NPI on the paper remittance and check.
For electronic 835 remittances, if both a Medicaid Provider ID and NPI are submitted, the 835 electronic remittance and paper check return the submitted Medicaid Provider ID and NPI. If only an NPI is submitted, the 835 and paper check return the submitted NPI and the Medicaid Provider ID based on the crosswalk.
