Update to Supervisory Protocol Policy: Approval Improvements

Effective 1 de novembro, 2024 BCBSRI will no longer require credentialed providers to submit documentation for approval to implement a supervisory protocol.   Professional outpatient providers who are credentialed with BCBSRI will only be required to have a written policy addressing the Supervisory Protocol requirements.   

As a reminder, the credentialed and independently licensed clinicians must be the rendering clinician on all claims. Claims must be submitted with the appropriate modifier as defined within BCBSRI’s Supervisory Protocol to indicate services rendered by the non-credentialed supervisee.
