Providers: State of Ohio issues notice about provider-administered drugs

Posted July 22nd, 2011 by tmccollough & filed under Newsroom, Provider News.

Buckeye Community Health Plan will soon be revising its claims submission process to mirror a policy that the state’s Office of Ohio Health Plans is implementing for Medicaid claims that relate to provider-administered drugs, and the corresponding usage of a National Drug Code on such claims. Click below for the state’s notice about the policy.

Please note that this change will take effect on Monday, August 2. See the attached information sheet provided by the State of Ohio for detailed information.

Buckeye has updated its claims processing systems to accommodate this change effective August 2, and we appreciate your cooperation in the claims submission process as such. If you have any questions about these changes, please call our Provider Services Department at (866) 296-8731.

As always, thank you for the care you provide to our members.
