FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Cement Masons Union Local 502 uses payer ID 34643.

Cement Masons Union Local 502 has no eligibility API, so there is no 270/271 transaction to send. Checks still run automatically: our screen agent performs the portal check for you on your schedule, rather than a staff member doing it per patient. Setup is required.

A portal check takes 10–15 minutes of staff time per patient. A screen agent runs the same check without occupying anyone — scheduled ahead of the day's appointments, so results are waiting rather than being fetched one patient at a time.
