I am having ongoing challenges related to billing local BCBS for out of state plans. My calls to the provider hotline are routed to the out of state plans, but from what I understand the problem solving should occur with the local BCBS. My issue seems to be across multiple clients. I am located in chicago and unable to reach anyone locally. Can someone contact me or provide me a number to speak with someone.
Thanks

Hi- I submit billing to BCBSIL. For clients who have BCBS insurance from other states, my claims aren't being processed and random status codes (Code 88, Code 82) are showing on availity. I call both the provider line on the clients card and am being told I am not in network or they can't find the claim. I am told to contact local BCBSIL. I call BCBSIL and get redirected once I enter the clients member ID back to the plan I originally called. I am stuck in a loop attempting to get these resolved. What additional information do you need?
