Waiting for a Response

After processing, a confirmation will be sent to you as notification to begin filing claims electronically. If neither confirmation nor a returned packet is received after two weeks, contact the NGS EDI Department toll-free at 1-877-273-4334.

Testing

Once you have received your Submitter ID and Password from NGS, please call the SolAce Support Team and set up an appointment for Mailbox setup and Test Transmission.

Please have 25 test claims ready for testing. Test files should consist of a variety of claims that represent the type of claims you will be submitting once production status is achieved. Test claims will not be processed for payment, but will be validated against production files; therefore, they must contain valid patient procedure, diagnosis, and provider information.
