A payer ID is the identifier a clearinghouse uses to route an electronic claim to the right insurance payer. It goes in loop 2010BB of the 837 claim, and the payer is identified the same way in loop 2100A of eligibility and claim status requests. It is also called an EDI payer ID or electronic payer ID.

Are payer IDs the same at every clearinghouse?

No. Payer IDs are assigned per clearinghouse. Large national payers tend to use the same ID nearly everywhere, but regional plans and third-party administrators often have different IDs at different clearinghouses. Confirm an ID against your own clearinghouse's payer list before submitting.

What happens if I submit a claim with the wrong payer ID?

The claim is usually rejected before it reaches the payer - on the clearinghouse's rejection report or a 277CA acknowledgment - so it never shows up as a denial on the 835. A rejected claim was not received by the payer, so the timely filing clock keeps running until a corrected claim is accepted.

Payer ID Lookup

218 electronic payer IDs and the insurance payers they route claims to. Look up an ID from a remittance, a card, or a rejection report to see which payer it belongs to, or find a payer's ID for loop 2010BB of the 837. Each ID links to a page covering where it goes on the claim and what to confirm before you submit.

For a payer's coverage policies, timely filing limit, and appeal process, open its page in the payer billing reference.

Payer ID questions

What is a payer ID?: A payer ID is the identifier a clearinghouse uses to route an electronic claim to the right insurance payer. It goes in loop 2010BB of the 837 claim, and the payer is identified the same way in loop 2100A of eligibility and claim status requests. It is also called an EDI payer ID or electronic payer ID.
Are payer IDs the same at every clearinghouse?: No. Payer IDs are assigned per clearinghouse. Large national payers tend to use the same ID nearly everywhere, but regional plans and third-party administrators often have different IDs at different clearinghouses. Confirm an ID against your own clearinghouse's payer list before submitting.
What happens if I submit a claim with the wrong payer ID?: The claim is usually rejected before it reaches the payer - on the clearinghouse's rejection report or a 277CA acknowledgment - so it never shows up as a denial on the 835. A rejected claim was not received by the payer, so the timely filing clock keeps running until a corrected claim is accepted.

Payer IDs are from the Stedi payer network directory unless a page names another source, and are assigned per clearinghouse. Always confirm an ID with your clearinghouse and the member's card before submitting a claim.
