Electronic Funds Transfers (EFT)

Wellmark participating providers have a contractual requirement to enroll in Electronic Funds Transfer. Please complete the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Enrollment form.

Be sure to contact your financial institution(s) to make certain they are aware of the CAQH CORE (Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare, Committee on Operating Rules for Information Exchange) EFT and ERA operating rules. The appropriate arrangements will need to be made between you and your financial institution to accommodate the delivery of the CORE required minimum CCD+ (Cash Concentration or Disbursement including an addenda record) Data Elements necessary for re-association of the EFT payment with the ERA. CAQH CORE has developed a sample letter for providers to utilize when reaching out to their financial institutions. Please refer to the Committee on Operation Rules for Information Exchange for additional information pertaining to re-association.
