Effective August 1, 2025, 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.
To make the process as easy as possible, the Board will soon be removing the requirement for providers to log into the Medical Portal and accept the “Agreement for electronic submission of CMS-1500” before working with a submission partner. This step will be removed as of July 28, 2025.
You don’t have to wait!
With this change coming, providers who have not started the electronic submission process can simply contact a Board-approved electronic submission partner and arrange for electronic submission of the CMS-1500 form beginning July 28 and no later than August 1 when the mandate takes effect. (Any electronic submission before July 28 will still require the provider to have completed the Medical Portal agreement step.)
