Selecting the appropriate EDI enrollment form to use

The processing of EDI enrollment forms can take First Coast Service Options Inc. (FCSO) up to five business days to complete. If the request is approved, a confirmation letter is returned to the provider via U.S. Mail. If the request is denied, the original paperwork is mailed back to the provider. Two examples of why a request would be denied are: An invalid NPI is used on a form or a mismatch between the address listed on the form and the one on file.
The mailed response from FCSO can take 5-10 days to be delivered depending on the provider’s location. Please allow ample time for processing and mail delivery before calling the EDI help desk for a status.
