We’re expanding laboratory claims editing for Medicare Plus Blue

Starting January 2022, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan will expand its laboratory claim editing process to promote correct coding and assist with payment accuracy for Medicare Plus Blue℠ claims.

These enhancements will help ensure that our claim payment policies are easy to understand and align with nationally recognized sources of information. They’ll also help us better meet the needs of a changing health care industry while maintaining alignment with national coding guidelines.

Additional information and updates will be included in future communications over the coming months.
