EmblemHealth: New Telemedicine Policy

EmblemHealth announced a new reimbursement policy for Telehealth/Virtual Care back in February this year. Accordingly, they launched it on June 1, 2022. Providers are asked

 To use telehealth visits (where possible)

 To meet Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) measures

 To improve risk score accuracy

 To increase Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS®).

Note that, for EmblemHealth and ConnectiCare Medicare Advantage plans, the POS requirements will go into effect at the end of the PHE. Providers are also requested to use telehealth modifiers listed in the policies to reduce errors in payment.
