The Anthem provider claim payment dispute process consists of two steps.

 

1.       Claim Payment Reconsideration: This is the first step in the Anthem provider payment dispute process. The reconsideration represents your initial request for an investigation into the outcome of the claim. Most issues are resolved at the claim payment reconsideration step.

 

2.       Claim Payment Appeal: This is the second step in the Anthem provider payment dispute process. If you disagree with the outcome of the reconsideration, you may request an additional review as a claim payment appeal.

 

This tool is already available for Medicare and Medicaid and will be available starting in late November for commercial business as well.
