Michigan Blue Cross? You MUST sign up with Emdeon to continue receiving electronic remittance!
Per Blue Cross, providers must enroll with Emdeon in order to retrieve their BCC (Blue Cross Complete) vouchers and receive 835 transactions from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan. On Sept. 14th, if you have NOT signed up with Emdeon, you will longer be able to receive or access remittance information through web-DENIS.
Effective September 10, 2015, providers must enroll with Emdeon to retrieve their BCC vouchers and receive 835 transactions from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan.
To enroll, visit emdeon.com (http://www.emdeon.com/resourcelibrary/#119) to locate forms and information about the set up process. An enrollment guide (http://www.emdeon.com/resourcepdfs/Enrollment%20Guide.pdf) is available to walk you through the steps of completing the ERA Provider Setup Form for remittance files.

You can submit completed forms by fax at (615) 885-3713, or e-mail at batchenrollment@emdeon.com. Per Blue Cross/Emdeon, the processing turnaround time is about 72 hours.
Per Blue Cross, "if you experience interruptions with receipt of 835s, contact Emdeon at (800) 451-5059". I'm guessing this means after Sept. 14th.

Michgan Blues Claim Filing DEADline
BCBS of Michigan sent out an e-mail recently stating that the Blues will retire their local system on Oct. 31, 2014. Since they will no longer process claims on that system, all claims filed on the local system must be submitted and received by Sept. 15, 2014, in order to be processed.
If you submit a claim after the filing limits, BCBSM will not offer any special handling or filing extensions, and no payment will be due from BCBSM or the subscriber. All health care providers must follow claim-filing deadlines (as you can see, there are no exceptions here).
For more information about this change, please refer to the March 2014 Record.
Blue Cross defined the local contracts, which have been migrating to their new system and will be completely migrated mid September.
These local contracts include:
Any clam submitted with one of the local contracts (listed above); whether it is a secondary, resubmission, or original needs to be received by Blue Cross no later than September 15, 2014 or it will not be processed.
Patients with local contracts should have received a new contract number to go through the new system.
You can contact Provider Inquiry at Blue Cross of Michigan for more information.
