How it works

  1. 1

    Add claims

    Drop in your CMS-1500 forms as PDFs or a spreadsheet, or type a claim in. For a scan or a photo, type the claim beside the page.

  2. 2

    Review

    Each claim opens beside its form, with problems named in plain words. Nothing is used until you confirm it.

  3. 3

    Generate

    Choose Test or Production, see the cost first, and download the file.

  4. 4

    Upload to Medi-Cal

    You upload it in the Medi-Cal Provider Portal. We show the steps beside the download.

What Medi-Cal needs from your clinic

Medi-Cal, not ClinikEHR, issues Submitter IDs and decides what it accepts. Your workspace walks you through each step.

A Submitter ID

Your clinic asks Medi-Cal for its own 3-character Submitter ID with the Telecommunications Provider and Biller Application/Agreement (DHCS 6153).

Provider Portal registration

You register that Submitter ID in the Medi-Cal Provider Portal, where you upload your files under Transaction Center, EDI Submission.

A test first

Medi-Cal asks for at least 10 test claims for each type of claim you bill. Test files are free here, and the checklist in your workspace keeps your place.

Pay per claim, in credits

No separate Claims subscription: it runs on your ClinikEHR plan. Test files are free. One credit is one cent.
