Change Healthcare update: Timely filing limits to resume

Effective for claims submitted on or after Sept. 1, 2024, CarePartners of Connecticut is ending the claims timely filing waiver that we instituted related to the Change Healthcare cybersecurity event and will return to our standard requirements.  
  
To support providers who utilize Change Healthcare, a subsidiary of Optum, as a clearinghouse while connections were being restored, CarePartners of Connecticut temporarily waived timely filing limits.    
  
With electronic claims submission connections with Change Healthcare restored through RelayHealth (see the May 1 article in the CarePartners of Connecticut newsletter for details) for claims submitted on or after Sept. 1, 2024, our standard timely filing requirements will resume. 

For the latest information, please refer to the Our Response to Change Healthcare’s Cybersecurity Incident page.  To view our standard timely filing and claims adjustment requirements, refer to the claims section of our Provider Manual.
