Registration and Testing

If Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is a new concept for you, please read the Introduction to Electronic Business Practices page first.  If you have any questions about the registration and testing process, contact EDI Support Services at DHS.EDIsupport@state.or.us or call 888-690-9888.

 


EDI Registration Packet

 

Before you can exchange EDI transactions with DHS, you need to register to become an approved Trading Partner and/or EDI Submitter.

  • To register, complete and return the forms in the EDI Registration Packet (PDF - 10 pages).
  • If you need only a specific form in the registration packet, use the following links.

Business-to-Business testing

 

Once DHS receives and approves a completed Trading Partner Agreement, a member of DHS EDI Support Services will call each submitter and provide them with specific instructions and guidelines, including logins and passwords, to complete business-to-business (B2B) testing.

 

B2B testing verifies that EDI submitters can successfully exchange EDI transactions with DHS. Once EDI submitters pass B2B testing, DHS can then move them to EDI production status, where submitters submit live claims and inquiries to DHS. For more information, go to the EDI Production page.

Exhibit C: EDI Registration Change Form

(Word) (PDF) (2 pages)

4/09

Trading partners must notify DHS of any material changes to their registration information within 10 days of the change. Material changes include, but are not limited to:
  • Changes of address or e-mail address
  • Contract number or contract status
  • Changes to authorized individuals or EDI submitter
  • Upgrades to newer transaction versions (when released)
  • The addition or deletion of authorized transactions, or
  • Any other change that may affect the accuracy of, or authority for, an EDI transaction.

DHS requires the signature of the Trading Partner or Authorized Signer to validate the changes listed on the completed form.

If your trading partner name, Tax ID, and/or DHS provider number changes, you will need to submit a new TPA.
