New York State Medicaid (eMedNY) billing: the deadline to plan around

New York Medicaid fee-for-service claims are submitted through eMedNY. Most members are in Medicaid managed care plans, and the state's timely billing rules apply to managed care billing as well.

90 days from the date of service

Claims must be initially submitted within 90 days of the date of service unless the delay is outside the provider's control, in which case an approved delay reason code is required and the claim is due within 30 days of coming within the provider's control. Rejected claims must be corrected and resubmitted within 60 days of notification, and every claim must be finally submitted within two years of service.

Rules last checked against the program's published provider guidance in November 2026. Always confirm current requirements with the payer before relying on a deadline.

Payers and workflow notes for New York

Payers NY practices commonly bill

  • Empire BlueCross BlueShield
  • Excellus BlueCross BlueShield
  • EmblemHealth (GHI and HIP)
  • Aetna, Cigna and UnitedHealthcare
  • Medicaid managed care plans
  • Medicare, administered in New York by National Government Services (Jurisdiction K (J-K))

Your actual payer mix and contracts are confirmed on the discovery call.

What we watch for

  • Track the 90-day initial submission limit and the 60-day correction limit for rejected claims separately.
  • Delay reason codes must match the real cause. A code that does not apply gets the claim denied for timeliness, and provider delays do not qualify.
  • Adjustments, not voids, are normally used to correct a paid claim.
  • Claims older than two years are reviewed only with documentation that the delay was caused by the Department or its agents.

New York medical billing questions

What is New York Medicaid's timely filing limit?

Claims must be initially submitted within 90 days of the date of service, unless the delay was outside the provider's control and an approved delay reason code is used. Corrected claims are due within 60 days of notification and all claims must be finally submitted within two years.

Does the 90-day rule apply to Medicaid managed care in New York?

New York's published guidance states the timely filing rules apply to all provider types, including managed care organizations billing Medicaid. Individual plan contracts can add their own requirements, which we confirm for each plan you are contracted with.

Can you work with practices in New York City and upstate New York?

Yes. We work remotely in your existing EHR and practice management system, so location in the state does not affect the service.

What if a patient shows us Medicaid coverage after the visit?

That is one of the approved delay reasons. The claim is due within 30 days of the date you were notified of the eligibility, using the matching delay reason code.
