After the recent THIN/Availity merger, Availity announced the THIN platform will be discontinued to existing submitters as of December 31, 2007.
The following payers and states are impacted by the THIN/Availity merger:
Medicare B for IL, MI NM and TX
BC/BS for IL, MI NM and TX
Medicaid for TX
IDPA for IL
Tricare for all regions 1-12
Commercial claims for all states as listed on the THIN Payer ID List
Medisoft has secured an extension for all new submitters through May 31, 2007. Beginning June 1, 2007, the Availity Direct Module (AVAP) will be provided to any new submitter. Please note, that current users of the GPNT Direct Module submitting claims to the THIN platform may continue to submit claims through December 31, 2007. However, the THIN platform will be discontinued for all users as of December 31, 2007.
The Availity Direct Module (AVAP) is compatible with both Medisoft Version 11 and Version 12.
The AVAP Direct Module will be provided to current Medisoft Version 12 GPNT users who have previously purchased this module. For those customers using Medisoft Version 11, the upgrade fee for the AVAP Module is $299. An AVAP upgrade fee of $549 applies to all customers on versions prior to Medisoft Version 11. In addition, these customers will need to purchase an upgrade for their core Medisoft software.
Availity recently removed the THIN Payer List and all THIN Enrollment forms from their website. If you experience technical issues or are denied access to the THIN platform as a new submitter prior to May 31, 2007, please contact us.
