Provider data updates and attestation

Want to help secure accurate and timely payments? Verify your data!

If health care professionals are contracted with us, we require them to verify their demographic data every 90 days. They only need to check or confirm the locations where they're currently treating patients.

How do I update and verify my provider data?

Individual practitioner solutions

CAQH Provider Data Portal

The CAQH Provider Data Portal portal allows you to access directory services and update profiles in real time. It’s a multi-payer solution, so any updates and attestations you make are available to all payers you’ve authorized.

Roster Management program

If a practice is assigned to the roster management program, they'll need to work with their assigned roster manager to review and verify the accuracy of the practice's data. You can also submit data through CAQH. Reach out to the roster manager to learn more.

Why is data attestation so important?

Keeping your data accurate helps our members find you. Our members make most of their care decisions based on:

  • New patient acceptance
  • Office location
  • Services and treatments provided

Additionally, some members make care decisions based on your cultural competencies, such as:

  • Specialized education for cultural understanding
  • Caring for the LGBTQ+
  • Language
