Enrollment Process Enhancement Jul 21, 2026 11:50-12:00 EDT

Optum is excited to introduce an improved and more streamlined process for provider and pharmacy enrollments, designed to simplify submission steps, reduce turnaround time, and provide a more efficient experience for our customers. This self-service enrollment model ultimately expedites the process by allowing providers and pharmacies to easily access, complete, and submit enrollment forms directly, eliminating unnecessary back-and-forth.

New Streamlined Process
The updated process puts more control in your hands and reduces processing delays:
1. Access Enrollment Forms
- Visit our enrollment forms page: Medical, Hospital and Dental Enrollment Forms | Optum Business
2. Locate the Appropriate Form
- Navigate to the “AbsoluteAR Forms” dropdown
- Select and download the enrollment form for your desired payer
3. Complete and Submit
- Fill out and sign the form
- Submit directly to enrollmentcentral@optum.com (This is not a monitored inbox and is only an intake for completed enrollments. An acknowledgement email will be received upon sending completed enrollments.)

***The Optum coversheet should be the first page of the attachment and should include all pages of the enrollment in one attachment.

What Happens Next?
Once your completed enrollment is submitted:
- Our team will submit the enrollment to the payer on your behalf
- We will actively follow up with the payer to track status
- You will receive updates on approvals or denials
- Upon approval, we will update our systems accordingly to ensure readiness

Additional Support Option
For customers who prefer a more hands-off approach, keying services remain available as an optional add-on to your contract. If selected, our Enrollment team will complete enrollment forms on your behalf, ensuring flexibility based on your operational needs and create summary reports that will keep you in the know of the progress of the enrollment efforts from beginning to end of project.

If you have any questions or need assistance, our team is here to help. We are confident this enhancement will make the enrollment process more efficient and user-friendly.

Status Page Consolidation Aug 21, 2026 21:00 - Aug 24, 2026 09:00 EDT

On Aug. 21, 2026, 9:00 p.m. ET, we will be transitioning our products from the current Solution Status page (solution-status.optum.com) to a single, consolidated status page. The transition will continue throughout the weekend, with all products available on the new Status Page by Aug. 24, 2026, 9:00 a.m. ET. During this time, service availability will not be impacted, though status information may be temporarily unavailable.

Following the transition, all products will be available at https://status.optum.com rather than the current Status Page, and all subscriptions will be managed through the Customer Care Hub.

No action is required on your part. This update is part of our ongoing efforts to improve service visibility and provide a more streamlined experience.

For additional information or assistance, sign in to the Customer Care Hub and submit a new case to Product Support.

Scheduled - Optum Insight has completed claims testing in collaboration with the Provider Outreach & Education (POE) team to validate payment accuracy and claim reopening outcomes with the new dispense fee modifier. Based on this review, please disregard our former instruction for non-Recovery clients to take related denials to re-openings. We are actively addressing inhalation dispense fee denials for both Recovery & non-Recovery clients which occurred before inhalation claims were placed on hold Feb. 20, 2026. No action is required from providers currently.

System enhancements resulting from this collaborative testing are scheduled for completion by mid-April. At that time, claims that were previously on hold will be released for processing. We appreciate your continued partnership.

Scheduled - We’re excited to introduce a new enhancement to the Pharmacy Support IVR designed to make claim support faster and more convenient for your pharmacy. When calling for assistance with a claim, you now have the option to use our new automated claim utility, which provides messaging for resolving rejected claims—right within the IVR.

This feature was built with your workflow in mind, offering quick access to common claim responses so you can get the information you need without delay. For more complex needs or personalized support, our knowledgeable customer support representatives remain just a selection away.

By using this new IVR capability, you can reduce wait times, streamline claim resolution, and keep your pharmacy running smoothly. We’re excited to offer this added flexibility and will continue to invest in enhancements that improve your service experience and support your business.

Scheduled - Customers,

As part of Optum’s effort to continuously improve our systems, we are migrating to Cloudflare to enhance system redundancy, security and cost effectiveness.

This will affect both the network (switch) and e-Prescribing, specifically the following URLs:
• rxnsconnect.changehealthcare.com effective date March 2, 2026
• scriptrouting.changehealthcare.com effective date March 4, 2026
• connecthttppost.changehealthcare.com effective date March 10, 2026
•connect.changehealthcare.com effective date March 12, 2025

As part of this change, the DNS names will resolve to the IP Subnet 168.183.3.128 /27 (usable range 168.183.3.128 - 168.183.3.159).

If your firewall filters by DNS, then no action should be needed on your part.

However, if your organization does IP filtering, you will need to add to your whitelist for outbound traffic to IP Subnet 168.183.3.128 /27 (usable range 168.183.3.128-168.183.3.159).

We asked for this to be completed by March 1, 2026 to avoid disruption when the change is implemented. Above are the effective dates for each connectivity type.

If you have issues please call our customer support team at: 866-379-6389

Scheduled - Optum Insight has identified inconsistent payment activity and reopening outcomes across the DME MACs. As a result, we are temporarily pausing reopening efforts for Recovery clients and recommend that non-Recovery clients who manage their own reopenings do the same at this time.

We are actively conducting claims testing and have engaged the Provider Outreach & Education (POE) team to seek clarification and address our concerns. As a reminder, inhalation claims for Medicare Part B remain on hold in our system pending additional guidance.

Original notice sent Feb. 20, 2026
This message is intended for MedRx Medicare Part B DME Clients

***************UPDATE TO CMS POLICY ON INHALATION HCPCS**************
On 2/1/26 CMS implemented a new policy requiring KX modifier be submitted on inhalation drug claims & the Medicare MedRx system was updated accordingly. Subsequently, on 2/17/26 CMS released an update to this requirement as follows – retroactive for claims date of service 2/1/26 forward:

• In addition to all inhalation HCPCS requiring a KX modifier, the KX modifier must also be submitted on the corresponding dispensing fee claim (one per month per patient).

As CMS has never required a modifier on a dispensing fee claim previously, this policy change will require coding within the Medicare MedRx system to accommodate. As such, we will be putting inhalation drug + dispensing fee claims on hold going forward until such coding can be completed. This will prevent further denials from occurring. We are assessing scope and will provide an updated alert containing delivery timeline soon. Once the coding updates are in place, we will release any held claims to Medicare with the appropriate modifier on both claim lines.

For inhalation claims date of service 2/1/26 – forward which have already been released to Medicare, Medicare is denying the dispensing fee portion of inhalation drug claims while paying the inhalation drug HCPCS. In order to obtain payment for the dispensing fee portion, you will need to take the claims to re-openings.

Action Needed/ How to reopen:
MedRx Recovery customers claims will be worked as part of the standard MedRx Recovery denial management service.

Non-MedRx Recovery customers should perform the following steps:
1. Identify dispensing fee denials with a DOS on or after 2-1-2026 where the drug paid (ANSI denial code CO4).

2. When reopening claims, ensure that the same modifier(s) submitted on the drug is applied to the dispensing fee

Note: All regions handle reopenings via their payer portals, whereas Jurisdictions B and C also take reopenings via fax.
