Summary
HMSA has updated its Claim Documentation Requirements policy to specify which billing codes require supporting documentation for claims processing. The complete list of affected codes is now available on the HMSA provider portal. Billing teams must review this list to ensure all claims include proper documentation to avoid denials.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing team must access the complete Claim Documentation Requirements list at prc.hmsa.com/s/article/Claim-Documentation-Requirements and cross-reference all codes submitted to HMSA. For each code on the requirements list, verify that claims include the mandatory supporting documentation before submission. Update billing software validation rules to flag claims missing required documentation. Train all billing staff on the updated requirements. Failure to include required documentation will result in claim denials and payment delays.
