Allowance Inquiry transaction coming soon
The new Allowance Inquiry transaction — which replaces the retired Fee 
Schedule Inquiry transaction — is scheduled to be available in February 
2015. This new transaction will return fees for professional providers 
only and will indicate where primary care physician capitation is 
generally applicable. The fees returned via Allowance Inquiry will be 
associated with migrated members only and will not include results for 
Traditional or Comprehensive Major Medical members.
Note: Provider payment allowance information will be for 
informational purposes only and will not be a guarantee of payment for the 
amount displayed.
*The Professional Injectable and Vaccine Fee Schedule is 
updated quarterly. We have published the July 1, 2014, and October 1, 2014, fee 
schedules.
