Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA) Enrollment Process
CHPW uses both SDS and Availity for our Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA), or 835, transactions. The enrollment process is all electronic and does not require a fee to register or enroll. You or your clearinghouse will need to enroll in ERA directly with SDS, CHPW’s preferred vendor, or Availity. Please go to:
Note that the 835 ERA is different than ACH/EFT. ACH/EFT are payments made via automated clearinghouse/electronic funds transfer. The 835 ERA is your remittance advice or explanation of payment. 835s and ACH/EFT are separate transactions and each requires a separate enrollment. If you enroll in one of these transactions, you are not automatically enrolled in the other; you can have ERA and not ACH/EFT or vice versa. Please see our Provider Manual, “Electronic Transactions / Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)” section for more information or contact [email protected].
