Electronic Funds Transfer Now
Available for Michigan Medicaid Providers
The Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH)
is implementing Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) as an
option for all enrolled Medicaid providers. Providers
electing this option will receive all Medicaid payments
due under one Tax Identification Number (TIN) —
either a Federal Employer ID number (FEIN) or Social
Security Number — as a single transfer each payment
cycle. Providers already receiving EFT payment for other
services provided to the State will automatically begin
receiving Medicaid payments.
The first phase of the EFT implementation was made
available for Medicaid Health Plans and CSHCS Special
Health Plans (provider type 17), and Medical Suppliers
(provider type 87). Beginning December 1, 2001, these
providers were eligible to receive Medicaid payments
through EFT. Electronic Funds Transfer is now available
for all other provider types.
