Changes to Our Annual National Drug Code Fee Schedule, Impact and Timeline

April 1, 2026

We review our NDC Fee Schedule on an annual and periodic basis. Reimbursement rates for some medications may change because of this review. Effective June 1, 2026, NDC rate changes for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico will go into effect.

To evaluate the changes in your reimbursement that may result from our updated NDC Fee Schedule, you may log in to Availity® Essentials on or after June 1, 2026. The schedule is confidential and proprietary and must be maintained as such per your agreement.

If you have any questions, please contact your Network Management Consultant.

We’ll continue to remind you to monitor our physician fee schedules in our monthly Blue Review℠.
