Billing NPI's may possibly require additional submitter numbers

RelayHealth would like to provide you with the following important information from Noridian Administrative Services EDISS Support regarding National Provider Identifier (NPI). Please read carefully and follow the specific instructions for your organizations.

Failure to update your Payor Assigned Submitter ID may cause payment delays.
EDI Support Services (EDISS) is issuing Submitter IDs (Payor Assigned Submitter IDs) in a one to one ratio with the Billing NPI, due to the transition from Medicare Provider Numbers to NPI in electronic claim submission. If you have one Billing NPI you will have one Submitter ID. If you have multiple Billing NPIs you will have multiple Submitter IDs. The way you enumerated determines the way Submitter IDs will be assigned. Refer to the following chart for examples:



For existing providers who have enumerated with multiple Billing NPIs for that one Medicare Billing Number: EDISS will fax you additional Submitter IDs for each billing NPI, if currently submitting claims with one Medicare Billing Number and one Submitter ID and have enumerated with multiple Billing NPIs for that one Medicare Billing Number.

CPID 1446 Nevada Medicare
