CHP+ requires every practice to submit claims for all services delivered to CHP+ members.
Only those claims that qualify for fee-for-service reimbursement will be paid.
To facilitate claims processing, CHP+ contracted providers must abide by Colorado Access' claims filing procedures. All services rendered by specialty providers will be considered claims. Claims for professional services can be billed on a CMS1500. Claims for facility services can be billed on a UB04. All services are reimbursed using the current CHP+ Fee Schedule.
