Say Hello to the Turquoise Claims System
The New Mexico Health Care Authority (HCA) and Medical Assistance Division (MAD) will be launching Turquoise Claims, a new Medicaid claims management system which will go-live in December.
Turquoise Claims will replace the current Medicaid claims management system (Omnicaid) and the NM Medicaid Provider Web Portal. You will find Turquoise Claims on the YES.NM.GOV website and log in just like you do today to access the Provider/PED Enrollment system.
YES.NM.GOV will be your one-stop shop for all your provider needs.
One Piece of a Larger Project to Update Medicaid Systems
Turquoise Claims is just one piece of a large project to update every aspect of the New Mexico Medicaid enterprise system. This module will streamline our ability to manage and oversee all claims processing, improve efficiency, and increase accuracy of billing and payments to comply with federal guidelines.
What’s New and What’s Not
While the way you submit claims won’t change very much, Turquoise Claims adds new features, including:
- Custom templates for routine services, managed by your organization, to match your billing needs.
- A user-friendly portal with user security levels for inquiries and claims submissions by employees within an organization.
- Real-time claim status inquiry and member eligibility inquiry to ensure easy access to the latest information.
We’ll continue posting additional information here about the new Turquoise Claims process for Fee-for-Service (FFS) and Managed Care Organization (MCO) providers, the transition timeline, training opportunities, and a coming roadshow. We’re committed to keeping you informed every step of the way.
