We’re migrating to a new platform for electronic transmissions

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan is moving to a new SFTP file transfer platform, Edifecs, for your electronic transmissions (such as 837 claims, 277CA transactions and reports, 835 ERA, 999 acknowledgements and capitation reports).

We plan to retire the current SFTP file transfer platform, EDDI, this year. To ensure there are no interruptions to your claim submissions, we ask that you follow the migration schedule provided to you.
If you haven’t received it already, an email with your migration schedule will be coming from your assigned support representative at EDIMigration@bcbsm.com. We’re using a phased migration schedule that will extend through the end of April.

  • Your email subject will be: Update: New EDI File Transfer Platform (XX)
  • (XX) is the initials of your EDI migration support representative.
  • From: EDImigration@bcbsm.com

We’re attaching a Technical Info Sheet and FAQ document to the email so you’ll know what actions you’ll need to take.

If you have any questions about this move, email EDIMigration@bcbsm.com.

Note: If any of your information has changed (email, vendors, contact information, etc.), email us at EDIMigration@bcbsm.com so we can update it as soon as possible. Include your submitter ID with your inquiry.
