Summary
This August 2017 Provider News from Security Health Plan is primarily informational, covering community opioid prevention initiatives, member health coaching success stories, fall prevention workshops, and updates to the provider portal. No direct billing code changes, coverage modifications, or reimbursement adjustments are announced. The portal updates include new FAQs regarding claims/eligibility permissions and prior authorization workflows.
Action Required
No immediate billing team action required. This is informational content. For reference: providers can direct eligible patients (age 65+) to free Stepping On fall prevention workshops in Clark, Eau Claire, Oneida, and Portage Counties. Billing teams should be aware that the redesigned provider portal (launched April 17, 2017) now requires separate security permissions for claims vs. eligibility access—organization administrators may need to review and adjust user permission settings in the portal, but this is an IT/administrative function rather than a billing workflow change.
