COVID fee schedule changes*
Notice of Material Amendment/Change to Contract
Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Anthem) appreciate your participation in one or more of our provider networks. Today, we are writing to notify you of fee schedule changes that will become effective on July 1, 2021.
Anthem has completed a review of the fee schedule changes that were implemented in response to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency. As a result of that review, we have identified errors in our fee schedule rates for some of the COVID-19 CPT and HCPCS codes. These errors are causing our systems to pay the incorrect rates for some services. Anthem will be correcting our fee schedules and claims with a date of service on or after July 1, 2021 will be reimbursed based on the corrected rates.
Please note that the revised rates can be viewed on Availity.com beginning April 1, 2021.
If you have questions please contact your Anthem network manager. Contact information is available on the anthem.com Contact Us page.
We look forward to your continued participation in our networks.
