(HCAS). Health New England enrolled providers in the CAQH provider directory program and providers should have received email notifications from the CAQH that prompted them to review their existing information in CAQH ProView, and submit additional details about their practice. The directory program engages providers in reviewing and maintaining up-to-date provider directory information to help ensure Health New England members have access to accurate provider demographic information when seeking health care services.<\/p>\n<p>CAQH ProView is already being used by providers across all lines of business for credentialing with Health New England, and CAQH ProView will now also include your provider directory information. Every three months, providers will be prompted to confirm their information, and attest that their data is accurate. If changes or updates are needed, providers may do so at any time and confirm that their new data is accurate.<\/p>\n<p>Once providers are enrolled in CAQH ProView by Health New England, and approved by the provider, their current provider directory information will be sent to Health New England by CAQH. We will use this data to make updates to our published provider directory. Contracting and billing data changes and inquiries should continue to be submitted directly to Health New England.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the provider directory initiative through CAQH, including a brief demonstration video by CAQH regarding how the system works, you may visit HCAS at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hcasma.org\/Directory.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.hcasma.org\/Directory.htm<\/a> or CAQH at <a href=\"https:\/\/proview.caqh.org\/Login\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/proview.caqh.org\/Login<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Attention Providers and Practice Managers: Accurate provider directories are critical to helping our members make educated decisions about their plan choices.
