Empire Blue Cross Claim Form PDF Details

Filing a health insurance claim with Empire Blue Cross requires thorough attention to detail, especially when using the Empire Blue Cross Claim form. This form serves as a crucial document for individuals seeking reimbursement or direct payment for healthcare services from providers outside the Empire Blue Cross network. It encapsulates various sections, including patient and insured information, physician or supplier details, and comprehensive instructions to ensure accurate and complete submission. Whether the healthcare services arise from routine visits, emergency treatment, or are related to employment, auto accidents, or another incident, every aspect must be meticulously documented. The form uniquely identifies each claim through details such as Medicare, Medicaid, or other insurance information, alongside personal identifiers like the insured's ID and patient's relationship to the insured. Moreover, it factors in the complexities of healthcare services, addressing situations involving other insured policies, employment-related conditions, and specifics about the healthcare provider. To facilitate the processing of claims, it mandates the attachment of original itemized bills or the completion of sections dedicated to the services provided. Empire Blue Cross emphasizes the need for the patient’s or their legal guardian's authorization, both for the release of pertinent medical information and for the understanding of the financial aspects, such as charges, payments, and balances due. Additionally, it stipulates clear guidelines aimed at preventing fraudulent claims, underscoring the legal implications of submitting false information. Through this form, Empire Blue Cross outlines a structured pathway for members to claim their benefits, ensuring transparency and efficiency in handling healthcare expenses.

Please make sure the three-letter alpha prefix, along with the insured’s member identification number, appears in Box 1a. Do not complete Box 13.

Have the physician complete the physician supplier information sections (Boxes 14–33). And mail it to the address listed on the front of the form.

NOTE: If you receive services from a participating physician (an “in-network” physician), you are not required to complete any claim forms. All participating network physicians submit claims directly to their local Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield plan.

If you have any questions about completing this claim form, please call the Customer Service telephone number listed on the front of the form or the number on the back of your member identification card.

PROVIDERS: If you have rendered services to a member, please complete the physician supplier information sections (Boxes 14–33). Then mail it to the address listed on the front of the form.

PATIENT’S SIGNATURE

The patient must sign the claim form, authorizing the release of information to Empire or its designee as described below. If the patient is a minor, the signature must be that of the patient’s parent or legal guardian.

I authorize any healthcare provider, payor of health claims or government agency to furnish to Empire or its designee all records pertaining to medical history, services rendered, or payments made regarding me or my dependents for review and evaluation of any claim or services.

I authorize Empire or its designee to disclose such information to another payor or self-insurer. If my coverage is under a group contract held by an employer, association, trust fund, union or similar entity, this authorization also permits disclosure to them for purposes of utilization review or financial audit.

This authorization shall become effective immediately, and shall remain in effect until the latest of six years after the termination of coverage, or the last determination or payment by Empire on a claim or service under the coverage. This authorization shall be binding upon me, my dependents, my heirs, executors or administrators.

FRAUD STATEMENT

Any person who knowingly and with intent to defraud any insurance company or other person files a statement of claim containing any materially false information, or conceals, for the purpose of misleading, information concerning any fact material thereto, may be guilty of a criminal act punishable under law and may be subject to civil penalties.
