As previously communicated, with the transition to our new operating
platform, there could be some differences in
claims processing and outcomes.
Please be advised that a notification is needed to assure proper claims
payment for maternity admissions that exceed
the following lengths of stay:
- vaginal deliveries of 5 days or greater
- cesarean deliveries of 7 days or greater
If you have an admission that exceeds these parameters, please call Clinical
Services to provide notification at
1-888-YOUR-AH1 for AmeriHealth New Jersey or at
1-800-275-2583 for AmeriHealth Pennsylvania.
For any questions regarding this requirement, please contact your Provider
Partnership Associate or Network
Coordinator.
