HealthChoice, DOC, and DRS Mandated Electronic Funds Transfer
Posted 04/16/12; Modified 03/19/13

As mandated by HB1086, the Transparency, Accountability, and Innovation in Oklahoma State Government 2.0 Act of 2011, all payments disbursed by the Office of the State Treasurer must be made solely through electronic funds transfer (EFT).

EGID has been given a waiver on this mandate until June 30, 2013; however, claims processed on or after July 1, 2013, for providers who have not authorized EFT for their contracted TIN, will be denied, regardless of the date of service.

To avoid the possible disruption of claim payments, all providers are strongly advised to submit their EFT information via the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Form as soon as possible.

• Practice groups that use the same bank account for multiple providers under the same TIN need to submit only one form to EGID along with a list of their affiliated providers.
• The EFT authorization form is good for all networks and locations under the contracted TIN/NPI combination.

The EFT authorization form for HealthChoice, DOC, and DRS is available on the following links:

You’ll need to allow two to four weeks for your registration to be processed, so don’t wait until the last minute to sign up!
