All SJIPA Members and Office Staff: COVID-19 HEDIS for BCBSNM
Due to the presence of COVID-19 and the healthcare state of emergency in New Mexico, many facilities are limiting non-patient access for the safety of their staff and patients. Similarly, BCBSNM and the San Juan IPA are limiting staff exposure to medical facilities. Unfortunately, it is HEDIS season and records still need to be processed. San Juan IPA and BCBSNM are asking for HEDIS records be to pulled and sent by your facilities. At this time BCBSNM is not making this a mandatory request, but please be aware that contractually they may do so. For clarity: should BCBSNM take that step it will become a contractual obligation for records to be pulled and sent.
Please send records by fax, secure email or by mail to:
- Fax to (800) 386-9132
- Secure email to NMHEDISCOMM@bcbsnm.com – please use your facilities email encryption feature.
- USPS and mail to:
Blue Cross Blue Shield of NM

Albuquerque, NM 87113

Did you know? Many Insurance plans now apply patient copays toward the deductible and out of pocket expenses. So when deductible and out of pocket expenses are met the patient may not have a copay.
