Updates have been made to Manage My Organization in Availity Essentials to improve security and help you ensure your organization’s provider information remains current. Add, edit, and/or delete provider data functions in Manage My Organization are now reserved for Availity Administrators and Administrator Assistants.
Providers originally added with the relationship selection of “This is third-party not directly affiliated with my organization” will not be available in Select a Provider drop-down lists in various Availity tools. Attestation needs to be completed for each provider that has this relationship selected to ensure users can efficiently conduct transactions in Availity.
Administrators may follow the steps below to quickly identify if providers added to your Availity account’s Manage My Organization are classified as part of your organization.
Administrator – Providers Report Criteria
- In Availity Essentials, from the Account dashboard, select Manage My Organization
- Choose your Organization and select the blue Manage Provider button
Select Export Providers from the drop-down list
Next Steps
The exported file includes the Provider Type in Column A which will indicate a Y or N.
- If the value is Y, then the provider is associated with the Organization.
- If the value is empty or N, then the provider has not been associated with the organization and Administrators need to attest that the provider is part of the organization by selecting this relationship: “This provider is part of my organization.”
