Coverage under prefix VFS

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.

EPO

Members pay a percentage of charges after meeting their deductible. Reimbursement is based on reasonable and customary rates for the service area.
