Accessing the PES Software

The Provider Electronic Solutions (PES) software is free and includes the ability to submit batch claim files through the secure Web Portal. If you choose to use PES, we encourage you to review the PES User Guide carefully prior to installing the software.

• PES Installation and Documentation - The full install of Gainwell Technologies' PES, as well as its user guide, is available for download below. Please review the hardware requirements prior to installing the application. If you require a CD to install PES, please contact EDI Services at (877) 261-8785 or locally at (770) 325-9590. The PES User Guide provides detailed instructions for installation and initial configuration of PES. Warning: Running the full installation for PES will overwrite your database file.
• Backing Up the PES Software - To make a quick backup of your database file, copy the file: C:\GAhipaa\ganewecs.mdb and save it by pasting it in the same folder. This will automatically create a numbered backup; for example, the second backup will be C:\GAhipaa\Copy (2) of ganewecs.mdb. Alternatively, you can save the .mdb file to another folder and manage the name/number yourself.
• Upgrades to PES - Upgrades to PES ensure that the application is up-to-date with current Georgia Medicaid policies and HIPAA standards. New features are periodically made available to improve the quality of the product. Please monitor this site, or communications sent from Gainwell Technologies to identify when an upgrade is available. Do not "open" the upgrade file. Instead, save it to the following location on your hard drive: C:\GAhipaa\upgrades. Select Upgrade from the Windows menu by clicking START, then click All Programs, click GA Gainwell Technologies Provider Electronic Solutions, then click Upgrade.

Accessing the Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) Site

Authorized submitters who have successfully completed the SFTP Setup Request form and the EDI Trading Partner Agreement will receive notification by e-mail within 5-7 business days once they have been configured for SFTP access. Users will need to access the site using their SFTP credentials received in their SFTP Welcome E-mail. Additional Information about how to access the SFTP site is available in the SFTP Setup & Data Transfer Requirements guide below.
