Frequently Asked Questions

 
Q:

NPI, National Provider Identifier – Will my EFT be affected by NPI?

A:

This will be determined by your enumeration strategy. EFT will not be affected by NPI except for providers that have chosen to get a single NPI for multiple Medicaid Provider IDs. In that case, if some of the IDs are set up for EFT and some are set up for paper checks, then all the Medicaid Provider IDs are removed from EFT. Three key fields must be the same – Bank Account Number, Type of Account, and Routing Number, in order for all the IDs to remain set for EFT. If these 3 fields are not the same, the provider will be notified in a letter from Program Accounting that the Medicaid Provider IDs are being set to paper for payment and if they want the EFT payment, they need to submit an EFT enrollment form with the correct banking information. The NPI and Medicaid Provider ID entered on the enrollment form must be a new Medicaid Provider ID that is contained in the letter from CSC Program Accounting.
