Anthem Blue Cross Announces Incentive for Completion of Health Assessments



Anthem Blue Cross is offering financial incentives to physicians for completing member health assessments for patients with certain exchange/mirror products effective June 1, 2015.

Anthem is working with Inovalon to contact physicians to request completion of the health assessments. The assessments will be completed using Inovalon’s secure, electronic tool (ePASS) or using the Encounter Subjective, Objective, Assessment and Plan (SOAP) Note provided with by Inovalon for each identified patient.

Physician are eligible to receive:

  • $100 for each properly submitted electronic SOAP note submitted through ePASS
  • $50 for each properly submitted SOAP to Inovolan via secured fax

The information is being requested as part of a Covered California requirement that participating health plans collect and maintain information about the health status of their plan enrollees to better manage their health conditions. There are no penalties for non-compliance at this time.

Physicians who have questions regarding the program can contact Anthem Provider Services at (855) 854-1438. For specific health assessment questions, contact Inovalon at (877) 448-8125.
