National Data will accept electronic pharmacy and medical transactions from participating program members and transmit them to Montana's fiscal agent for processing. The response will then be transmitted to the health care providers.

National Data said 43 state Medicaid programs, including New York and California, are linked to its national health care network for either real- time processing or eligibility services.
