Date Issued: 06/16/2021
Effective September 15, 2021, EmblemHealth has instituted a payment policy for duplicate claims for drugs. A duplicate claim is defined as a claim or claim line that has been previously processed for payment. When a provider submits the same drug code for the same date of service, and the same number of units, typically given once a day or less frequently, then the second drug code will be denied as a duplicate claim.
