Written by Practice Support Team | Jun 26, 2024 12:30:00 PM

 

If you take patients under Civilian Health and Medical Program of VA (CHAMPVA), you must set up electronic funds transfer (EFT) to get your claims paid. 

You may have questions about making the required move. We have answers.

Is Switching to EFT Required or Optional?

Getting paid by EFT is a federal requirement, and it is not optional.

What’s in it for Me?

By enrolling in EFT payment, you help ensure CHAMPVA claim payments are secure, efficient, and compliant with federal mandates, while safeguarding Veteran family members’ access to benefits.   

How do I Enroll?

Visit the VA Financial Services Center (FSC) Customer Engagement Portal, and complete the Payment Account Setup webform to enroll. 

Who Do I Call for Help with the Webform?

Call the FSC help desk at 877-353-9791.
