All CMS-1500 Bills Must Now Be Submitted Electronically

Fri, August 01, 2025 6:36 PM | Babette Atkins (Administrator)


Starting today, all health care providers in the workers' compensation system, regardless of office size or patient population — must submit the CMS-1500 universal billing form electronically, through a Board-approved electronic submission partner in order to be paid for services. 

This mandate applies to each individual provider in a practice who treats workers’ compensation patients. If you have not already done so, simply contact a Board-approved electronic submission partner to arrange for electronic submission of your CMS-1500 forms. Take action now to ensure uninterrupted payment for your services in treating injured workers.

Going forward, the workers’ compensation payer can deny payment of services if the CMS-1500 form was not submitted through a Board-approved electronic submission partner and the Board will not enforce payment.
