New Electronic Option Available for New Mexico Medicaid Providers: GuidingCare®
Starting Dec. 3, 2018, Altruista Health GuidingCare, a new web-based health care management tool in the Availity® Provider Portal, will be available for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico (BCBSNM) providers rendering services for Blue Cross Community CentennialSM members.
This tool was developed specifically for use by health care providers, support services organizations and other key partners to assist in the patient’s care management. Not only will this tool help assigned physicians monitor their NM Medicaid members’ rendered services, but it will also help allow for quick access to the following patient information:
- Care plans
- Activities
- Quality measures
- Care transitions
GuidingCare is accessible to existing Availity administrators and assigned users. If you are not yet registered, you may visit availity.com 
and select “Register.” Once logged into Availity, select the “Medicaid Care Management Information and Reporting” link found under the Applications tab within the BCBSNM-branded Payer Spaces section. For more information on BCBSNM’s electronic solutions, refer to the Tools page on our Provider Website at bcbsnm.com/provider.
