Tag: Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
Nickel and Dimed by Electronic Credit Card Fees?
Chances are that at least one small health care coverage plan is trying to force your medical practice to receive payments through a virtual credit card – one that charges unnecessary fees.
“This is something that’s affecting all practices to some degree.” “The good news is that physicians don’t need to put up with that, and the Texas Medical Association can help.” See “How to respond” from TMA, below.
Aetna OfficeLink Updates 9/1/2021
Aetna is going paperless. Here is how to get your electronic EOB Statements and Payments.
Starting in September through 2022, we’re phasing out paper Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statements and checks. Sign up before it’s your turn. If you don’t enroll to receive direct deposit payments, you may receive future payments by virtual credit card. Keep reading to learn more.
Get EOB statements from Availity®
Register for our provider portal on Availity. Get identical copies of your EOB statements from the Availity Remittance Viewer. Then print or save them to your computer. You won’t need to wait for them to arrive in the mail.
Sign up for direct deposit payments
Sign up for direct deposit payments using our new portal, Payer Enrollment Services. Just goto Payer Enroll Services. We’ll stop using EnrollHub® effective September 1. Even if you’re
already enrolled to receive direct deposit payments (or electronic remittance advice), use the new portal to make changes.

Third Party Claim and Code Review Program
Beginning December 1, 2021, you may see new claim edits. These are part of our Third Party Claim and Code Review Program. These edits support our continuing effort to process claims accurately for our commercial and Medicare members. You can view these edits on our provider portal.
We may request medical records for certain claims, such as high-dollar claims, implant claims and bundled-services claims, to help confirm coding accuracy.
You’ll have access to our prospective claims editing disclosure tool. To find out if our new claim edits will apply to your claim, log in to the Availity provider portal. Once there, go to Aetna’s Payer Space > Applications > Code Edit Lookup Tools. You’ll need to know your Aetna® provider ID number (PIN) to use the tools.
For all coding changes, go to Aetna Payer Space > Resources > Expanded Claim Edits
