Time saving tips for providers: Professional data attestation

Immediately: Establish a recurring attestation schedule for all professional practitioners in your practice. Ensure all providers understand attestation requirements: critical data elements (name, specialty, address, phone, digital contact) every 90 days, and all other data elements (credentialing, licensing) every 120 days. Designate staff responsible for attestation and provide login credentials for the CAQH Provider Data Portal (proview.caqh.org). Print and post the BCBSM Provider Data Attestation Flyer in your office as a reminder. Bookmark the 'Update and attest to professional practitioner information in the CAQH Provider Data Portal' guide and the Provider Data Attestations page on bcbsm.com for ongoing reference. Set calendar reminders to ensure no provider misses the 90-day and 120-day attestation deadlines. Train all staff on the consequences of missed attestation: removal from provider directory, claim payment delays, and potential contract termination.
