TPLRD Electronic Funds Transfer Payments

Back to the TPLRD webpage

The Third Party Liability and Recovery Division (TPLRD) accepts online payment from your checking or savings account through the secured Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). EFTs offer a faster, more secure, and cost-effective alternative to traditional payment methods. EFTs eliminate the delays associated with traditional paper-based payment methods like checks.

Make an EFT Payment

Electronic Funds Transfers (EFTs) offer a range of benefits that make them an efficient and popular method for transferring funds. Here are the key advantages:

  • Free, online payment submission
  • Safe and secure funds transfer
  • Scheduled payment automation
  • Quicker transfers and fast processing time
  • Save on postage and printing costs
  • Digital record keeping

Make a payment by selecting the button at the bottom of this screen. You have the option to pay as an Enrolled User or a One-Time Payment User

Enrolled User

The Enrolled User option allows you to easily:

  • Submit and track payments
  • Receive notifications about scheduled payment submissions
  • Manage multiple enrollments with different banking information
  • Schedule future payments, reducing the risk of missing deadlines
  • Cancel a scheduled payment
  • Access and track payment history.

Sign up Online 

Please submit the online enrollment form by clicking the New Enrollment Request button located in the EFT portal. Allow 5 business days for the ennrollment request to be processed. 

Sign up by Mail

Print out the Mail-in EFT Enrollment Form and send it to DHCS by mail to:

Department of Health Care Services
TPLRD EFT Admin, MS 4718
P.O. Box 997425
Sacramento, CA 95899-7425

Once TPLRD processes your form, you will receive two enrollment confirmation emails to activate your account. Please note, mail-in forms will take additional time to process.

One-Time Payment User

The One-Time Payment User option may be the best option if:

  • You are not an enrolled user and need to send one or more payments immediately.
  • You are not looking for a long-term commitment.
  • You wish for the flexibility to send payments as needed.
  • You submitted the EFT self-enrollment request (to become an Enrolled User), but have not yet received an enrollment confirmation email.

You can schedule a One-Time Payment by clicking on TPLRD One-Time Pay option at the top of the EFT Website.

Please note: as a One-Time Payment User, you do not have the option to cancel a scheduled payment nor access your payment history.
