| Humana Simplifies Provider Registration
As part of Humana’s continuing effort to enhance our electronic capabilities, we are proud to share one of our latest Web developments. Registration to our secure provider portal on Humana.com can be completed immediately online.
What does this mean to providers? It allows immediate access to one of Humana’s most valuable digital tools, our secure provider portal, the Provider Self-Service Center. Using the Provider Self-Service Center can save time, increase efficiency and help improve the productivity and bottom line of your practices by streamlining administrative tasks. Some of the functions available to registered practices include the ability to determine patient eligibility and benefits, request prior authorization, submit and look up referrals and claims and view fee schedules.
In the past, registration has been a paper-based process that required several days to complete, often delayed by administration issues. Now, the registration process is online, and usually takes minutes. This more efficient process is a great time-saver for your busy office staffs.
One way we improved the registration process is by asking practices to verify information directly from electronic payments or checks received from Humana. This process instantly confirms our provider’s identity and his or her relationship with Humana. It also eliminates the need for Humana employees to go back and verify this information. Providing this information, as well as your tax identification number and some geographic information, means instant access to our Web site and secure provider area!
We hope that if you are not yet registered, you will do so today, so you can take advantage of the many benefits of our Self-Service Center. To register, click https://securedlogons.humana.com/registration/default.asp.
We will continue to inform you of any new developments, electronic or otherwise, that will help to increase efficiency in your office.
Atentamente,
