Alert—code set rejection errors
WPS experienced an issue with a variety of code sets rejecting incorrectly from July 24—July 28, 2021. The issue has been resolved. If you had any claims with codes that rejected incorrectly, you will need to resubmit them.
Due to the volume of ERAs and EFT enrollments WPS receives, processing could take up to 30 days after WPS receives an enrollment. Our dedicated team works diligently to process enrollments in the order they are received. We appreciate your patience and will continue to provide the best service possible to meet the demanding needs of our providers.
