Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico (BCBSNM) to be ANSI v5010 ready on January 1, 2012 and still able to handle ANSI v4010 transactions.

As planned and previously announced, BCBSNM will be prepared to accept and transmit ANSI Version 5010 electronic transactions on January 1, 2012.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services recently announced a 90-day period of enforcement discretion for this mandate. To assist those providers who have not completed their conversion, BCBSNM will continue to process both v4010 and v5010 transactions during the enforcement discretion period.

We urge all providers to continue working with their trading partners to ensure that they have a plan in place to process v5010 transactions within the enforcement discretion period. Email questions regarding this issue.
