Summary
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas now requires all providers to verify their directory information every 90 days, even if nothing has changed. This includes name, address, phone, specialty and digital contact information and can be done through Availity Essentials or demographic change forms.
Action Required
Every 90 days: Practice administrators must verify directory information (name, address, phone, specialty, digital contact) using either Provider Data Management in Availity Essentials or the Demographic Change Form. Ensure office staff have current information that matches what's provided to BCBSTX to help members access services.
