Important Updates Regarding Coronavirus COVID-19
9/3/2021 • Posted by Provider Relations

As an important resource for providers, we encourage you to access the information on Fidelis Care’s provider portal at providers.fideliscare.org. On the portal, you can:

• check claim status
• confirm member eligibility and benefits
• submit authorization requests
• check on the status of an authorization
• view provider remittance advice

We also encourage you to use Fidelis Care’s Interactive Voice Response as another way to check claim status and member eligibility.

Using these tools and resources will provide you with the information you need, 24/7, and help to reduce anticipated call volume and wait times for our Provider Call Center.

Emergency Preparedness Plan Providers should have an emergency preparedness plan in place for their facilities. The latest NYS-specific information can be found on the SDOH website at the following link: https://www.health.ny.gov/diseases/communicable/coronavirus/.
 

Below, we have summarized any waivers still active at this time as they relate to COVID services. If not explicitly called out below, any other services are to be considered business as usual. We will keep this summary up-to-date as information changes. Member-specific questions can be reviewed through the Provider Portal.

Coding - Updated 01/31/2022

Fidelis Care has updated our claims systems to be able to receive new codes associated with COVID-19 testing and has added Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) codes as they become available. Providers should continue to follow evolving CDC ICD-10-CM Official Coding Guidelines available here: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/icd/icd10cm.htm  when selecting a diagnosis code and procedure code to ensure proper reporting.

 

*Please Note:  The coding guidelines referenced below is not a guarantee of reimbursement in all products, as codes may not have published rates for all products.  In addition, coding may be subject to National Correct Coding Initiatives or CMS standards.

*On April 16, 2021, the FDA revoked the EUA that allowed for the investigational monoclonal antibody therapy bamlanivimab, when administered alone, to be used for the treatment of mild-to-moderate COVID-19 in adults and certain pediatric patients. Due to this revocation, the Medicaid and Medicare programs will not pay for claims with HCPCS codes M0239 or Q0239 with dates of service after 4/16/2021.
