Dec. 1 changeover to Novologix web tool scheduled for drugs covered under the BCN medical benefit

BCN providers requesting authorizations for drugs covered under the medical benefit must use the NovoLogix web tool for these requests beginning Dec. 1.

Dec. 1 is the new changeover date. (This is a change from the earlier date of Oct. 1, which was delayed.)

If you are new to the NovoLogix web tool, there are many resources on the Medical Benefit Drugs (Pharmacy) page in the BCN section of ereferrals.bcbsm.com to help you. These include:

How to log in to the Novologix system. Starting Dec. 1, to log in to the NovoLogix system:

  1. Log in as a provider at bcbsm.com.
  2. Click BCN Medical Benefit – Prior Authorization on the Provider Secured Services welcome page.
  3. Enter your NPI.

This will bring you to the NovoLogix welcome page.

BCN's Pharmacy Help Desk. BCN's Pharmacy Help Desk can also input the request on your behalf. You can call the Help Desk at 1-800-437-3803.

Training webinar on Wednesday, Dec. 7. Sign up for a one-hour training webinar on the NovoLogix web tool. There are two times available on Wednesday, Dec. 7. Select either 10 a.m. or 1 p.m. when you register.

Additional information. BCN will move the current active authorizations from the e-referral system to the NovoLogix system before Dec. 1. These authorizations will not be interrupted when the change in the system occurs.
