As a reminder, AmeriHealth Pennsylvania has streamlined the process for post-service professional appeals and enhanced access to the provider grievance process. Below is a summary of the procedures.
Billing disputes
There are two levels of internal review for professional providers. All first-level billing disputes must be received within 180 days of receipt of your Provider Explanation of Benefits (EOB). If a provider disputes the first-level billing dispute determination, he or she may then submit a second-level billing dispute by sending a written request within 60 days of receipt of the decision of the first-level billing dispute.
To facilitate a first- or second-level billing dispute review, submit inquiries to:
Provider Billing Dispute
P.O. Box 7930
Philadelphia, PA 19101-7930
Provider grievances
There is a one-level external review, performed by a clinically matched specialist for professional providers. All grievances must be filed within 180 days of receiving the Provider EOB. AmeriHealth Pennsylvania reserves the right to conduct a preliminary internal assessment. Appeals not overturned during the original assessment will automatically be forwarded for an external, matched-specialty review.
To facilitate a grievance review, submit to:
