Important CEDI Front End Update for ALL Trading Partners, Suppliers and Vendors
The Common Electronic Data Interchange (CEDI) system continues to experience delays in processing inbound files received from our Trading Partners.
All inbound files received during the week of October 6 -10, 2008, have been processed and CEDI reports have been delivered back to the Trading Partner’s CEDI mailbox. Delivery of all claims accepted by CEDI to the DME MACs will be completed no later than Monday, October 13th and will be delivered with the date the file was received by CEDI.
As of this morning, Monday October 13, 2008, it is continuing to take CEDI 16 hours to produce the TA1, TRN, 997 and GenResponse front end reports.
For files sent to CEDI after 5:00 p.m. ET on Friday, October 10, 2008:
Allow CEDI 16 hours to produce the TRN, TA1, 997 and GenResponse front end report before resubmitting those files.
National Government Services is working diligently to improve the timeliness of our report delivery and processing of the inbound files. While we are working to improve this performance, most of the additional front end edits added to CEDI on October 6, 2008 have been turned off. The DME MACs will continue to perform their Level II edits and these will continue to be returned on the “RPT” report delivered by CEDI to the Trading Partners.
Please note the following edits are still in place at CEDI on the GenResponse (GENRPT) report:
| NGS005 | C065 | C125 |
| NGS006 | C072 | C131 |
| NGS008 | C077 | C137 |
| B108 | C086 | C141 |
| C007 | C087 | C143 |
| C015 | C088 | C147 |
| C055 | C089 | C154 |
| C060 | C090 | |
* More detailed information on the edits listed above is available in the CEDI Front End Reports Manual on the CEDI Web site (www.ngscedi.com) under Resource Materials.
National Government Services has also identified the following CEDI edits to be modified before they are put back into production on the CEDI front end. If you received any of these edits during the week of October 6 – 10, 2008, you can resubmit those claims. If the claim passes the CEDI front end edits, it will be delivered to the DME MACs for processing against the DME MAC Level II edits.

| A549 | C111 | C187 |
| C003 | C122 | C190 |
| C008 | C124 | |
We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. National Government Services will keep you updated as we work to bring our CEDI environment back to the service levels provided prior to October 6, 2008 system release.
