Can I submit EDI bills with the SSN or is a case number always required?
Yes, providers may submit electronic bills with either an OWCP Case Number or Social Security Number (SSN) in Loop 2010BA for segment NM109. An SSN is acceptable for a DFEC injured worker when it is submitted with Date of Injury (DOI) to identify correct case number.
Note: The SSN must be numeric only and cannot include hyphens.
