Helpful billing information

To prevent a rejection to your prescription (71 - Prescriber not covered) use the:

  • Prescriber's state license number.
  • Individual L&I provider number * or National Provider ID (NPI).
  • DEA number only if doctor is an endorsing prescriber.

* L&I provider numbers for large groups, clinics or hospitals are no longer accepted for prescription billing.

Pharmacy providers who submit bills on their own behalf and also use a third party pharmacy biller need to be sure to use the correct service provider ID. Payments will be made to the account associated with the submitted service provider ID.
