Medical Policy Updates
Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota's August 20, 2026 update covers medical policies its committee reviewed on August 11, 2026. Most changes are reformatting with no change in intent, but several add or remove procedure and diagnosis codes, including the sleep apnea diagnosis list, pediatric sleep apnea equipment codes and cosmetic surgery codes, so billing templates need checking. The notice gives no effective date, and the source says benefit decisions use the policy in effect at the time of service.
