Resolved: Delay in Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA) for California Medi-Cal

This message is intended for Assurance EDI and Assurance Reimbursement Management customers.

Update: This issue has been resolved.

Action Required: 

Medi-cal had a system issue that affected payments for certain providers. The issue caused incorrect payments for some providers (both under payments and overpayments with a payment date of 12/30/24). Medi-Cal rectified the problem and corrected the payments via Account Receivable (AR) transaction(s) in subsequent weeks.

It was later identified that this same system issue also resulted in incomplete or in some cases missing X12N 835 files. To remedy this, Medi-Cal had to recreate the incomplete or missing X12N 835 files. This task has been completed and the files are available for Receiver download in the Medi-Cal Provider Portal.

 Medi-cal informed that you would have to go into the Medi-Cal Provider Portal and download the new X12N 835 file(s) that have been loaded

  • If the X12N 835 file was missing originally, then the Receiver(s) simply download the file 
  • If the X12N 835 file was missing records (but a file was present originally), then the Receiver(s) will see a second file is now loaded (which contains the missing records). They need to download and use both files.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact your Customer Support Team and refer to Case INC-000002175.

Original Notice Sent on Jan. 13, 2025:

Due to a payer processing issue, there has been a delay in Professional and Institutional Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA) for the following payers for check date of January 6, 2025:
