Availity’s Attachments tool allows providers to submit recommended clinical review (predetermination) requests online to Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico (BCBSNM).
A recommended clinical review is a voluntary request for written verification of benefits prior to rendering services. BCBSNM recommends submitting a request if the service may be considered experimental, investigational or unproven, as specified within the BCBSNM Medical Policy.
You must be registered with Availity to use the Attachments tool. You can sign up today at Availity, at no charge. For registration assistance, call Availity Client Services at 800-282-4548.

Please note that the fact that a service has been preauthorized/pre-notified, that a guideline is available for any given treatment or that a service or treatment has been predetermined for benefits, is not a guarantee of payment. Benefits will be determined once a claim is received and will be based upon, among other things, the member’s eligibility and the terms of the member’s certificate of coverage applicable on the date services were rendered. If you have any questions, call the number on the member’s ID card.
