Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama is paying an incentive to eligible providers for referring to the Patient Health Snapshot (PHS) every time a Blue Advantage member comes into their office to identify:
• New gaps in care and gaps that may change from open to closed.
• New diagnosis on recent claims submitted by another provider.
Access to Blue Advantage patient PHS is available when checking eligibility from a patient’s account within MediSYS PM M2.
The last date for the 2014 PHS incentive to send in PHS for an incentive payment is Nov. 15, 2014
The PHS will be accepted by BCBS for 2015 PHS incentive beginning January 1, 2015 until June 30, 2015.
Common mistakes for BCBS Patient Health Snapshot submitted to BCBS are:
•No signature
•No date of service indicated
•Nothing circled or several rows have not been addressed
•Dispute is indicated but no medical records attached
•Conflicting diagnoses indicated as applicable for patient in the current year
