What is EDI?
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is a system of accepting claims electronically. Educators is an EDI partner with the Utah Health Information Network (UHIN). When submitting your claims electronically, please make sure your claims are in accordance with the national standards. For more information regarding the national standards, please refer to the UHIN website at www.UHIN.com.

Why should I bill EDI?
EDI saves you money. It eliminates paper handling and requires less preparation time for staff. With EDI there are no expenses for paper or postage. Claims billed EDI have a faster processing time than paper claims. It reduces the chance of error, which improves data quality. It's HIPAA compliant. Through accept and reject reports, available within 24 hours from the time of billing, you will know whether Educators has received your claim.

How do I register?
To send claims through EDI you must work with UHIN to obtain your trading partner number. Then call Educators' EDI specialist at 801-262-7476 or toll free 800-662-5850 with the trading partner number, the physician's name, Tax Identification Number (TIN), and the effective date for EDI submission. Upon completion of registration, you will receive an Educators' Submitting Provider Number (P33/G33 number), which will allow you to process your claims electronically. This number is unique to each provider. When a TIN is changed, the unique Educators' Submitting Provider Number must also be updated.
