2022 Provider Resource ManualMNSure productPeak Plan and Federally Facilitated Marketplace (FFM) Atlas Plan inWisconsinAdvanced Premium Tax Credit (APTC) Grace PeriodMembers who receive an advanced premium tax credit (APTC) to help with their healthcare premiumsare eligible for a grace period of up to three months if they have paid the premium for the first month ofcoverage. These members are the only HealthPartners members eligible to receive a three-month graceperiod.For services provided during month one of grace period:HealthPartners accepts responsibility and processes claims in a timely manner according to thebenefits. HealthPartners claim payment is not dependent on whether or not the member pays thepremium.For services provided during months two and three of grace period:HealthPartners will pend claims with status code 766: Services were performed during a HealthInsurance Exchange (HIX) premium payment grace period.If the member pays the full premium due before the end of the third month of nonpayment,HealthPartners will process pending claims according to the benefits.If the member does not pay the full premium due within the required time frame, HealthPartners willdeny pending claims and cancel the member retroactively, effective the last day of month one of thegrace period. The member is eligible to reenroll at the next open enrollment period.Non-APTC-eligible members who are responsible for their full premium payment are eligible for a 31-daygrace period for nonpayment.HealthPartners will pend these grace period claims with status code 734: Verifying Premium Payment.To check claims status, providers use a 276/277 electronic data interchange (EDI) transaction or theClaim Status Inquiry application on the HealthPartners Provider Portal.Questions and AnswersQ1: Would you provide an example of the three-month grace period in action for an May4

For example, let’s say an eligible member pays hisor her premiums for January and February only. Claims submitted for January, February and Marchservices will be covered according to the member’s benefits as long as the claim is received within thetimely filing limit specified in your contract.Q3: Does HealthPartners recoup the money paid for those claims during the first month ofpremium nonpayment?No. HealthPartners assumes liability regardless of whether or not the member pays the premium.Q4: Can providers collect from APTC-eligible members at the time of services if they haven’t paidtheir premium?How providers manage patient collection is up to them. APTC-eligible members who do not pay thepremium in full within three months are financially responsible for paying for their services during thefinal two months of nonpayment. Remember:1/20225

2022 Provider Resource ManualWe assume liability and pay participating providers for services provided during the first monthaccording to the member’s benefits. These claims are paid in a timely manner.If a member eligible for the three-month grace period pays the premium in full before the grace periodends, we process pending claims according to their benefits. Claim payments are sent to participatingproviders.Q5: Could an APTC-eligible member receive more than one premium grace period in a calendaryear?Members are eligible for more than one grace period, regardless of whether they are eligible for a3month or 31-day grace period. However, if a member reaches the end of the applicable grace periodand is terminated for nonpayment of premium, he or she may enroll again with HealthPartners or anyother Qualified Health Plan (QHP) only during an open enrollment period.Q6: How do members present proof of premium payment if requested by our medical facility?Members may create or sign into their secure web account at healthpartners.com and print or obtainproof of payment. If members require assistance with their web account, they may call theHealthPartners Web Support Help Desk at 952-853-8888 or 877-726-0203.How to submit a claim to HealthPartnersSubject: Electronic capabilitiesEffective: January 2000Last Updated: August 2009Reviewed: October 2020Explanation:HealthPartners offers many electronic capabilities for our providers.Administrative process:Minnesota Statute, section 62J.536 requires all health care providers to submit health care claimselectronically, including secondary claims, using a standard format effective July 15, 2009.The law applies to all health care providers that provide services for a fee in Minnesota and who areotherwise eligible for reimbursement under Minnesota Medical Assistance (Medicaid).Please review the FAQ article on the MDH website for more information regarding applicability of thestatute at x.html.For additional information, please visit healthpartners.com/electronicconnectivity.The entire law is available online at the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) index.html.1/20226
