Headquartered in Indianapolis, Anthem BCBS of Indiana is the bedrock of commercial employer group and individual insurance in the state. Mastering Anthem’s Availity portal workflows, specialty fee schedules, and stringent pre-service certification edits is vital to practice financial performance.
HIP 2.0 features a unique consumer-directed structure where enrollees make monthly POWER account contributions to maintain HIP Plus (which includes comprehensive dental, vision, and lower copays). If contributions lapse, non-exempt members drop to HIP Basic, altering practice copay collection protocols.
Indiana Health Coverage Programs (IHCP) contract with Anthem, CareSource, and MHS to administer HIP, Hoosier Healthwise, and Hoosier Care Connect. Practices must maintain synchronized credentialing across all three MCOs to protect patient access and capture pay-for-performance incentives.
WPS GHA administers Medicare Part A and B in Indiana under Jurisdiction 8 (shared with Michigan). WPS J8 enforces strict Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs) on outpatient diagnostics, ophthalmology, cardiology, and physical therapy caps.
