RelayHealth will begin submitting claims to the new MMIS system on May 16, 2009
Electronic claims submitted between May 16, 2009 and May 25, 2009 will be held by MassHealth for processing until implementation on May 26, 2009
June 2, 2009 will be the last day that ERA is produced from the legacy MMIS system.
June 8, 2009 will be the first day that ERA is available from the new MMIS system.
