Summary
Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Georgia) is promoting the use of Alerts Hub, a tool within Availity Essentials that provides daily email notifications for Special Needs Plans (SNPs) patients to streamline care coordination around admissions, discharges, transfers, and care plan updates. This is an informational bulletin about an existing application feature designed to improve HEDIS and Medicare Stars performance metrics, not a new billing or coverage requirement.
Action Required
No immediate action required. This is an informational bulletin promoting an optional workflow tool. Billing team should be aware that providers using Alerts Hub may improve care coordination documentation, which could positively impact quality metric reporting. No changes to billing codes, processes, or prior authorization requirements are mandated by this policy.
