BCBSRI regularly conducts quarterly fax-based validation and attestation of provider practice information displayed within our Find a Doctor tool. We contact provider offices directly, via fax, to ensure this information is accurate and up to date.

CMS requires providers to note whether the location included is the same as where a patient is able to make an
appointment. CMS also requires providers to note whether they are accepting new patients.

Once your office has verified your information, please check the “attestation" box and fax it back to BCBSRI as soon aspossible. Please note that even if your information is presently accurate and not in need of updates, your office is still
expected to verify your information, check the attestation box, and fax the form back to BCBSRI.

If you have questions about these verification efforts, please email ProviderRelations@bcbsri.org.
