Important Notes

Aspirus Health Plan requires the corresponding taxonomy to be submitted whenever a National Provider Identification (NPI) is reported on a claim submitted directly to Aspirus Health Plan or on claims that will crossover and be coordinated with Aspirus Health Plan coverage. When taxonomy is not reported on a claim that includes a NPI number(s), the claim will be rejected. 

  • For professional claims (submitted via 837P or CMS 1500) – billing and rendering taxonomy.
  • For institutional/facility claims – billing (submitted via 837I or UB04) and attending taxonomy (submitted via 837I).
  • Reference the Frequently Asked Questions: Taxonomy Code Requirements (PDF)

This process does not add your organization to Aspirus Health Plan ‘s contracted provider network. Please see the Our Network webpage if interested in becoming an Aspirus Health Plan contracted provider.
