\nDo you service Medicaid adolescents for Well-Care Visits?<\/strong>
\nHealth New England is launching an incentive program for our Medicaid adolescent members and we need your help. This program is designed to increase HEDIS compliance rates for adolescent members, ages 11 to 21.<\/p>\n
\nHealth New England has recently reviewed our required clinical criteria related to Medical and Behavioral Health policies. All updates included in the criteria below are effective August 1, 2016.<\/p>\n\n
\nCalling all practice managers! Provider\/pharmacy directory information must be validated.<\/strong>
\nAccurate provider\/pharmacy directories are critical to helping our members make educated decisions about their plan choices. Health New England offers an online directory for all of our products. In addition, hard copies of each directory are available upon request.<\/p>\n\n
