Claim Support
We use Electronic Data Exchange (EDI) to streamline and expedite the claim submission process. To learn how to submit claims through EDI and track their progress in NaviNet®, please refer to the information below.
Answers to our most frequently asked questions are found in our Provider FAQ.
For additional guidance, see the eLearning videos and Provider FAQs in our Provider Academy.
Claim Support:
The preferred way to submit claims is through the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). Claims can be submitted through your preferred clearinghouse as long as you are a BCBSNE-credentialed provider. If you do not already have a clearinghouse, BCBSNE offers free billing software and support to help you submit claims electronically.

To adjust or replace a claim, please review the Replacement Claims in Section 8 of the General BCBSNE Provider Procedures Manual.
To adjust or replace a claim, please review the Claims Adjustment Reason Codes and Remittance Advice Remark Codes.
You can also use PC-ACE, a free electronic claims processing software. The claims review software uses nationally accepted and sourced guidelines, including Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) regulations as documented by the American Medical Association (AMA), Correct Coding Initiatives (CCI) and Post-Operative Period Guidelines as outlined by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Note: Corrected or replacement claims must be filed electronically. Corrected claims submitted on paper by a provider with electronic claim filing capabilities will be returned with instructions to submit the corrected claim electronically. If your corrected claim includes attachments, your corrected paper claim must be filed to Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska, attached to a Reconsideration Request Form, as you have done in the past. If you have any questions regarding how to submit a replacement claim electronically, please refer to the HIPAA ANSI X12N 837P or HIPAA ANSI X12N837I implementation guide for detailed instructions.

I am already registered with NaviNet. Do I have access to BCBSNE information?
If you are an existing NaviNet user, and are either a participating BCBSNE network provider, or are a healthcare provider within the state of Nebraska, you should see Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska as an option in your Health Plans List. If you are a non-participating provider, your office must be loaded on the BCBSNE provider file.

Yes, but for security, the registration process will include validation and authentication with the provider office before access is permitted.
