SCIO Health Analytics auditing outpatient claims for commercial business

SCIO Health Analytics®, an independent company that provides services for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, began auditing outpatient claims for our commercial business on May 1, 2019.

The audits will:

  • Start with claims paid on or after Jan. 1, 2018.
  • Confirm compliance with Blue Cross guidelines and policy.
  • Validate proper billing of revenue, CPT and HCPCS codes, modifiers and units.
  • Ensure services are documented.
  • Detect, prevent and correct waste and abuse.
  • Facilitate accurate claims payments.

You’ll need to provide the proper medical charts for review. After an audit, SCIO will send you its findings and instructions for appeal, if necessary.

If you need to speak to a SCIO representative during the audit, call 1-866-628-3488, ext. 7525.
