Enrollment

RAs (Remittance Advices) are generated and posted to secure provider Portal accounts from one or more of the following

ForwardHealth financial payers:

• Wisconsin Medicaid (Wisconsin Medicaid is the financial payer for the Medicaid, BadgerCare Plus, and SeniorCare

programs)

• HDAP (Wisconsin HIV Drug Assistance Program)

• WCDP (Wisconsin Chronic Disease Program)

• WWWP (Wisconsin Well Woman Program)

A separate Portal account is required for each financial payer.

Note: Each of the four payers generate separate RAs for the claims, adjustment requests, or other financial transactions submitted

to the payer. A provider who submits claims, adjustment requests, or other financial transactions to more than one of these payers

may receive several RAs.

The RA is generated per provider enrollment. Providers who have a single NPI (National Provider Identifier) that is used for

multiple enrollments should be aware that an RA will be generated for each enrollment, but the same NPI will be reported on each

of the RAs.

For instance, a hospital has obtained a single NPI. The hospital has a clinic, a lab, and a pharmacy that are all enrolled with

ForwardHealth. The clinic, the lab, and the pharmacy submit separate claims that indicate the same NPI as the hospital. Separate

RAs will be generated for the hospital, the clinic, the lab, and the pharmacy.
