Here’s what you need to know about COVID-19 vaccines

When the government-purchased supply of COVID-19 vaccines runs out, health care providers should bill members’ health plans for both administration and the vaccine. We’ll process claims based on members’ immunization benefits.

As a reminder, you can view our COVID-19 provider communications as follows:

  1. Log in to our provider portal (availity.com**).
  2. Click on Payer Spaces on the menu bar, and then click on the BCBSM and BCN logo.
  3. Click on the Resources tab.
  4. Click on Secure Provider Resources (Blue Cross and BCN).

    Tip: You can make the Provider Resources site a favorite by clicking the heart icon next to this link. Clicking the heart adds a Secure Provider Resources (Blue Cross and BCN) link to the My Favorites menu.

  5. Under Easy Access, click on Coronavirus information.

You can also access these communications on our public COVID-19 webpage for health care providers.
