How to export your ERA / 835 from DrChrono
DrChrono stores your electronic remittances (ERAs/835s) inside the billing side of the platform, where posted payer payments and their adjustment detail live. You can review them on screen and export the underlying payment and remittance data, and DrChrono also supports a one-click OAuth connection that hands the same billing data to an authorized app directly — no manual download required.
Step by step
Good to know
- DrChrono is the one PM verified to expose appeal-grade remittance detail (the CARC/RARC adjustment codes) through a one-click OAuth billing grant — that's the frictionless path if you'd rather not export files
- Billing/ERA access is permissioned; a front-desk or clinical-only login may not see the remittance area, so use an account with billing rights
- A posted-payments report captures the numbers; the raw 835 file captures the full adjustment-code detail — either works to get started, and the raw ERA is richer
- ERAs only appear here for payers you're enrolled to receive electronic remittances from; paper-EOB payers won't show up as ERAs
How do I export my ERA or 835 from DrChrono?
DrChrono stores your electronic remittances (ERAs/835s) inside the billing side of the platform, where posted payer payments and their adjustment detail live. You can review them on screen and export the underlying payment and remittance data, and DrChrono also supports a one-click OAuth connection that hands the same billing data to an authorized app directly — no manual download required. Steps: sign in with a login that has billing access, then go to the Billing area where ERAs and posted payments are handled; open the remittance/ERA list and set the date range you want (aim for the last 3-6 months so the sample is representative); review the ERAs on screen, then use the export or download option to pull the payment and adjustment detail out — either the ERA files themselves or a posted-payments report; if you'd rather skip the manual step, authorize the app that reads billing data via DrChrono's one-click OAuth connection and let it pull the remittances for you.
