Please be advised that electronic claim files submitted on 10/4/04 were not processed until 10/6/04.  The server supporting the automatic loading of claim files was unexpectedly down for just one day. Unfortunately that would mean that those provider agencies who submitted electronic files on 10/4/04 DID NOT make the 10/5/04 adjudication and those payments would not be reflected in the 10/13/04 check. 

There is a correction to the response form accompanying the letter sent to providers on September 28 concerning reactivation of the clock for timely submission of claims.  The second part of the response form should read:

"90 days for unauthorized services and 180 days for authorized services."

It incorrectly states both time limits are for unauthorized services.
