ICYMI: Urgent action needed for August 1 CMS-1500 electronic submission mandate
The Workers’ Compensation Board (Board) is requiring health care providers to submit the CMS-1500 universal billing form electronically, through a Board-approved electronic submission partner, effective August 1, 2025. Starting that date, 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.
