Empire BCBS of New York (commercial plans) Timely filling changes- 2020

Effective April 1st 2020 all claims (commercial plans) will be subject to 120 days timely filling requirement.

Things to consider:

1. This applies towards the dates of service rendered before 4/1/2020 AND for dates of service on or after 4/1/2020.

2. This applies to any claim submitted to Empire on 4/1/2020.

Example if patient was seen on 12/30/2019 and your office submits the claim on 4/1/2020 then claim will be denied for timely filling.

In network providers should receive an amendment to the provider agreement (effective date 4/1/2020)
