Important NewsMedicare Secondary Payer Changes - ReportingJanuary 12, 2009Dear BCBSNC Group Administrators, Effective January 1, 2009, Federal law (Section 111 of the Medicare Modernization and SCHIP Extension Act) mandates certain changes in reporting of insurance coverage for Medicare beneficiaries, specifically when group health plans are primary to Medicare. BCBSNC will be compliant with these reporting changes following completion of an internal project which will enable us to extract and report the data in the CMS required format.
