eviCore accepting Blue Cross PPO authorization requests starting Dec. 22

For services that require authorization by eviCore healthcare for Blue Cross PPO members for dates of service on or after Jan. 1, 2018, don't submit authorization requests until Friday, Dec. 22, 2017.

An article in the November 2017 issue of The Record had indicated that requests could be submitted as early as Dec. 18, but eviCore's system won't be ready to accept those requests until Dec. 22.

For more information on these authorization requirements, refer to:

• The article Here's more information about new preauthorization program for commercial PPO, from the November 2017 issue of The Record
