2019 Subject Specific Webinars - March schedule

Topic: 

New Claim Payment Dispute option on Availity - coming 3/18/19

Date/Time:

March 26, 12pm MT

Description:

Learn about the new functionality now on Availity allowing providers to submit Claim Payment Disputes online.

 

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.

 

  1. 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 webinar will walk you through an overview of the tool to allow you to start submitting any applicable Claim Payment Disputes electronically, and start saving you time!
