Summary
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan (BCBSM) is reminding facility and organizational providers that they must complete provider data attestation every 90 days to maintain directory listing, ensure claim payments, and remain compliant with federal CAA mandates. Failure to attest results in removal from the provider directory, potential claim payment interruption, and possible contract termination.
Action Required
ONGOING (90-day attestation cycle): Facility and organizational providers must attest to five data elements (name, specialty, address, phone number, digital contact information) every 90 days. ACTION ITEMS: (1) Billing/Administrative Team: Print and post the Provider Data Attestation flyer in office areas to maintain staff awareness of attestation requirements. (2) Designated Provider Contact: Log into availity.com and access the Provider Data Management tool within Availity Essentials to review and attest to current facility information. (3) All staff: Bookmark the "Update and attest to facility and organizational provider information" guide and the Provider Data Attestations page on bcbsm.com for ongoing reference and updates. (4) Billing Team: Monitor attestation deadlines to ensure timely submission before each 90-day cycle expires. CONSEQUENCES: Failure to complete attestation will result in removal from BCBSM provider directory, interruption of claim payments, and potential contract termination with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Blue Care Network.
