Electronic Transactions on Independence Day Holiday – July 4, 2009

Although it is possible for providers to receive Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), transmit Electronic Media Claims (EMC), and retrieve payment reports at almost any time during the year, it is important to keep in mind that corporate and legal banking holidays delay EFT and claims processing.  The following schedule is for the upcoming July 4, 2009 holiday. 

EMC Collection Date HCSC Holiday System Availity Claims Processed Date Report Availability Date EFT Payment Available
July 3, 2009 Closed (Observed) Regular Hours July 6, 2009 July 7, 2009 July 9, 2009

BCBSTX will be closed on all observed holidays.  Claims “received” during these holidays will be “processed” the following business day. 

Note:  Customers will receive EMC real-time reports on the day of transmission. 

For Availity’s holiday schedule, please visit their Web site at www.availity.com or contact them at (800) AVAILITY.
