To begin receiving your ERAs in Blueprint, you'll first want to connect your payers into Blueprint. This process is called "enrolling" payers.
What are ERAs?
Electronic Remittance Advice (ERAs) are digital documents sent to you by insurance payers that explain how your claims were processed, including what was paid, denied, or adjusted.
Think of an ERA as the electronic version of an Explanation of Benefits (EOB). They contain the same type of information:
What was billed
What the payer allowed
What was paid
What was denied or adjusted
Patient responsibility amounts
The difference is how they’re delivered and used:
EOBs are often mailed to you as paper documents or sent as PDFs.
ERAs are sent electronically and can be routed directly into systems like Blueprint, where they can be viewed, matched to claims, and tracked more easily.
ERAs are not payments
Just like EOBs, ERAs explain how a claim was processed — they are not the payment itself.
Routing your ERAs to Blueprint does not affect how, when, or in what form you receive payment; it only changes where remittance details are delivered.
To manage payment delivery, whether by direct deposit, paper check, or another method, contact the payer directly.
What to expect when enrolling payers
As you add payers to Blueprint, Blueprint (powered by Stedi) submits all required ERA enrollment forms on your behalf -- no printing, faxing, or follow-up emails needed.
Enrollment timelines vary by payer and can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks.
While enrollment is in progress, you’ll continue receiving remittance advice the same way you did before routing ERAs to Blueprint.
Once the enrollment has been completed, ERAs will begin appearing in Blueprint. You can find them in the Insurance Payments tab of your Billing dashboard.

3. Select either:
Skip for now, which directs you to add payers to your list. This will allow you the ability to run eligibility checks and submit claims without receiving ERAs
Yes -- post payments for me, which directs you to fill out any information required by that payer for ERA enrollment.
4. The last step is confirmation of your agreement to proceed. Then select Enroll.
