EDI - EDI This type of EDI can be set-up in two [2] business days using The Covenant flat file format. The client extracts the claims out of their system and uses our flat file/HCFA in/out, UB in/out file layout. This is then returned to the client in the same layout. Implementation Timeline: 2 days Repricing Turnaround: Turnaround time of 90% the same day and the remainder within our normal 2-day turnaround time.

Paper to EDI If a client decides to use The Covenant as a "mailroom" and wants the claims returned by The Covenant EDI, we recommend the ANSI 837/3041 format. UB-92 and HCFA 1500 claim form data is converted into an electronic file and repriced. All claims, in-network and out-of-network, are electronically forwarded directly into client's claim system. Implementation Timeline: 250 claim files depending on the layout and the response time of the client. Repricing Turnaround: The turnaround time for the conversion of paper to EDI and processing is 2 days from the paper being received by The Covenant.

Paper to Paper The Covenant accepts paper claims and remits them back to the client with an adjudication page reflecting repriced amounts. Implementation Timeline: Immediate Repricing Turnaround: 1 day
