Summary
BCBSRI is issuing new member ID cards in 2022 for all groups that renew, which will display the member's deductible and out-of-pocket amounts for both in-network and out-of-network services directly on the card. This will make benefit verification easier for billing teams as key financial information will be readily available.
Action Required
Throughout 2022: Train front desk staff and billing team to reference the new deductible and out-of-pocket information printed directly on BCBSRI member ID cards when collecting patient payments and verifying benefits. Update patient registration workflows to capture this information from the new card format.
