Medicaid managed care under this BCBS prefix means the state has contracted with this plan to administer Medicaid benefits. Balance billing Medicaid members is prohibited. Timely filing requirements may follow state Medicaid rules rather than the plan's commercial deadlines. Contact the plan to confirm submission requirements.
Medicare Advantage coverage under this prefix means the plan administers Medicare Part A and Part B benefits on behalf of CMS. These claims may have different processing rules than commercial claims, including different prior authorization requirements and appeal timelines. CMS timely filing rules (365 days) typically apply.
Traditional indemnity coverage under this prefix is a fee-for-service plan. Members can see any provider without network restrictions or referral requirements. The plan reimburses a set percentage of usual and customary charges. Claims are submitted directly to the payer listed above.
