As previously communicated, AmeriHealth New Jersey commercial members will
be migrated to the new claims processing platform between September 1, 2015,
and October 1, 2015.
As these members are migrated to the new platform, they will be issued a new
member ID card with a new ID number. For this reason, it is imperative that you
obtain a copy of the member's current ID card at every visit to ensure that you
submit the most up-to-date information for claims processing. Please be sure to
also verify eligibility and benefits using the NaviNet® web
portal prior to rendering service.
New ID cards for migrated members
Migrated members will be issued a new ID card prior to their scheduled
migration. ID cards for migrated members will differ from ID cards for
non-migrated members in the following ways:
- AmeriHealth will assign a new 12-digit member ID number, called a "unique
member ID" (UMI).
- The subscriber and all members covered under the subscriber's policy will
share the same ID number. Each
member ID card will include the member's name and subscriber UMI.
- AmeriHealth New Jersey commercial member ID cards will now indicate in
which network the member is enrolled.
The AmeriHealth New Jersey network indicator will be located on the top right
section of the card, including
designations such as Local Value, Regional Preferred, and National Access. If
the AmeriHealth New Jersey
commercial member is enrolled in the National Access network through Private
Healthcare Systems, Inc. (PHCS),
the logo will also be included on the bottom right of the ID card.
Look for sample ID cards for migrated AmeriHealth New Jersey commercial members
in the September edition of
Partners in Health UpdateSM.
