Summary
BCBSWY is launching a new prior authorization system called Predictal, making Availity unavailable for prior authorizations from September 1-17. During this transition, providers must use fax or phone for prior auth submissions, and processing may take longer than usual.
Action Required
September 1-17, 2024: Stop using Availity for prior authorizations. Use fax (307-432-2917) with form from bcbswy.com or call 1-800-251-1814 for inpatient/concurrent reviews. Download updated Prior Authorization Guide and Service Type Guide PDFs. Monitor for system cancellations and direct contact from BCBSWY. Expect processing delays but within 14-day standard timeframe.
