Bill electronically in four steps (or less)

Moving from paper to electronic claims may be easier than you think.

With electronic claims, you get real-time feedback about missing information or claim errors, so you can submit clean claims every time. It's also easy to get started.

Step 1: How will you submit your claims?

Once you decide to bill OHA electronically, you will need to select how you will submit your claims:

  • Individually on the Provider Web Portal at https://www.or-medicaid.gov - Web claims can be copied and edited to make individual claim submissions even easier.
  • In batches using electronic data interchange (EDI) - EDI claims can be submitted to OHA through your own software, or by contracting with a clearinghouse or billing service that transmits the EDI claims for you.

Step 2: Contact OHA to get electronic access

Want to bill on the web?

  • Most Oregon Health Plan providers are authorized to use the secure Provider Web Portal at https://www.or-medicaid.gov.
  • Your office should have a web administrator who can delegate Claims Submit access to billing staff.
  • If you aren't sure, contact Provider Services (800-336-6016) and they can help you figure out the next steps.

Want to bill using EDI?

  • If you want a billing service or clearinghouse to submit EDI claims for you, you can also contact a service already registered with OHA.
  • Once approved, you and/or your EDI submitter may need to submit test claims to make sure "live" claims process correctly in our system.

Step 3: Start billing (and getting paid) electronically!

As with paper claims, before submitting electronic claims, you must verify that the client was eligible on the date services were provided.

Step 4: Keep informed
