Summary
EmblemHealth is introducing a new 'Claim Dispute' process starting December 11, 2025, that replaces the current claim inquiry workflow. Providers will have 180 days from the Explanation of Payment to dispute paid claims, claims applied to deductibles/copayments, or denied claims before submitting formal grievances.
Action Required
Before December 11, 2025: Billing team must familiarize themselves with the new EmblemHealth Claim Dispute process and updated Provider Manual. Update claim follow-up workflows to use the new Claim Dispute process instead of initial claim inquiries for questioning claim payments within 180 days of Explanation of Payment receipt.
