Education Information Required for Directory

May 3, 2022

The Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association now requires doctors of medicine and osteopathic medicine who participate in Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana (BCBSMT) networks to provide us their medical school and residency information.

Why it’s important: You must provide this information to be listed in the Blue Cross and Blue Shield (BCBS) national provider directory. Members of BCBS plans nationwide use this directory to find doctors who are accepting new patients.

Next steps: Please respond promptly if you receive a request from us about where and when you earned your medical degree and served your residency. This information will be added to the national and BCBSMT provider directory.
