Always report most current procedure codes so our ClaimsXten™ updates are accurate

As a reminder, we update ClaimsXten™ each quarter. ClaimsXten is clinical editing software that uses the most current Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System codes, including Common Procedural Terminology codes.

To ensure that we can process your claims and send accurate reimbursements to you as quickly and efficiently as possible, it’s important that you always report the most current HCPCS or CPT codes. You’ll want to check out the 2019 HCPCS Update, which has been posted on web-DENIS for the most recent list of new and deleted procedure codes for 2019. Check out the article in this month’s issue for more details about the 2019 HCPCS Update and how to easily locate it on web-DENIS.

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan works to make sure that ClaimsXten is also aligned with any unique Blue Cross payment policy. Blue Cross reserves the right to make changes or corrections when additional changes are required or new information becomes available. In some instances, changes to ClaimsXten may be applied retroactively.
