Testing

Once you have completed the enrollment steps outlined above and have your Submitter ID, Community Manager Login ID, and Community Manager Password, please call ClaimShuttle at 602-439-2525 to complete the mailbox setup and test submission. 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.

Once testing is complete, the "Line of Business/Transaction Production Approval Form" must be completed in order to obtain production approval. We will assist you with completing and submitting this form once the test batch has been submitted.

You will receive an email within 3-5 business days stating whether production approval has been granted or denied. Once you have been granted production approval you will need to contact your ClaimShuttle Support Representative so they can finish the setup and assist with your first production batch. If you have any issues with enrollment for claims or remits please feel free to give us a call at 602-439-2525. You can also reach out to WPS directly at 1-866-518-3285.
