Payer policy alerts are provided by commercial, Medicare and
Medicaid payers and summarize changes to medical coverage policies
from those organizations. Staying up to date with rapidly changing
payer reimbursement, coverage and medical coding policies will help
providers avoid payment delays and costly re-work. At the time of
this writing, Experian Health has 1,140 Experian Health payer
alerts related to COVID-19 and telemedicine policy changes.
Hospitals and healthcare organizations can register here
to access the list.
“Providers and payers are working nonstop adapting their systems
to the many and immediate challenges created by COVID-19,” said
Jennifer Schulz, group president at Experian Health. “The sheer
volume of alerts reflects the level of change and innovation
required to address a crisis of this magnitude. Many providers are
relying much more on remote scheduling and telehealth tools to
protect patients and staff and create order out of chaos. Experian
Health believes offering a central, comprehensive policy alert list
at no cost to all relevant organizations will simplify a
time-consuming task, helping providers stay on top of information
critical to their operations while they confront this crisis head
on.”
This public service to the healthcare community will continue to
be updated and remain free as long as alerts related to the
COVID-19 pandemic continue to be distributed.
