EDI Update - 270/271 and CORE Service Level Reporting (Revised)

Electronic Data Interchange Update

CORE service level reporting for 270/271 scheduled to begin Sunday, Feb. 10 (not Jan. 27)
On Sunday, Feb. 10, the Division of Medical Assistance Programs (DMAP) plans to implement CORE Phase I and Phase II requirements, including service level reporting for the 270/271 transaction.

No changes are planned for Sunday. Jan. 27.

Please do not send 270 requests for future dates of eligibility
Once we make these changes, please do not request any future-dated eligibility information from DMAP.

If you do request information for future eligibility dates, the 271 you receive may not accurately reflect the member’s current OHP eligibility.

Clarifications about DMAP's 270/271 reporting

  • OHA defines "in network" as "in state" and "out of network" as "out of state" (more than 75 miles outside the Oregon border).
  • Please use DMAP's 271 to identify whether an OHP member is enrolled in a plan (MCO or CCO). For plan members, the provider will need to send an inquiry to the plan(s) listed in the 271 to find out details of coverage.
  • For the 270 loop 2110C EQ segment, DMAP supports all mandated service types. For service types we do not support, we will respond as if a generic 30 were sent. For a list of all service types, see TR3 00510X279, page 125.
  • For the 271 loop 2100C segment TRN03, we will not enforce the 1, 3 or 9 prefix, since that prefix is not required for the 270. We will send back what is sent to us and will not modify it. For more information, go to www.x12.org/x12org/subcommittees/x12rfi.cfm and search by RFI number 1272.
