Send Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Information from Provider Enrollment Chain and Ownership System (PECOS) to Multi-Carrier System (MCS) Phase 2

The purpose of this CR is to implement Phase 2 of a two phased approach intended to reduce the 2-day cycle for Multi-Carrier System (MCS) claims processing when data is received from Provider Enrollment, Chain & Ownership System (PECOS) and the National Provider Identifier (NPI) appears on the Master Provider File. To that end, during Phase 2, Provider Enrollment Chain & Ownership System (PECOS) will begin sending Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) data to Multi-Carrier System (MCS) in the existing extract.
