Coverage under prefix P8K

Medicare Advantage

Under this prefix, the member may have Medicare Advantage coverage administered by this BCBS plan. MA claims are subject to CMS regulations in addition to the plan's own policies. Balance billing restrictions apply. Verify the member's specific MA plan details and confirm the correct payer ID for electronic submission.

Medicaid

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.

EPO

EPO coverage under this prefix means the member must use network providers but does not need referrals for specialist visits. This plan type is becoming more common as it offers lower premiums than PPO plans while providing more flexibility than HMOs. Verify network status before providing services.
