Summary
EmblemHealth and ConnectiCare are retiring legacy provider ID numbers (HIP PRIS #, GHI Provider Number, and Amisys ID). Providers will now use only NPI and TIN numbers for transactions, with a new 'PRPR ID' to be introduced later this year for patient directory purposes.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing team should update any stored provider information to remove legacy EmblemHealth HIP PRIS #, GHI Provider Number, and ConnectiCare Amisys ID numbers from billing systems and forms. Ensure all transactions with EmblemHealth and ConnectiCare use NPI and TIN numbers only. Monitor for the new PRPR ID rollout later this year for directory purposes.
