Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Payments

Do you get claim checks issued to your provider instead of to your clinic or are checks mailed to an old address? Would you like to have payments issued more quickly and avoid making physical bank deposits? Signing up for electronic funds transfer (EFT) payments from payors will resolve those issues!

IPN reports billing information and it is generally updated by payors within 30-60 days from receipt of the report. However, EFT does not require a PAY TO name or address for payment to be issued correctly. Contact payors you work with frequently to get signed up for EFT now!
