Help us keep directory information up to date

All products

Provider directories are an important resource for health care consumers, who utilize them to select providers, make appointments, and access care. In accordance with the No Surprises Act of 2021, providers should review and revalidate their information every 90 days to ensure accuracy of the Provider Directory. Failure to review and update information at least every 90 days may result in directory suppression until such information is validated.

At a minimum of every 90 days, providers should make sure to review and verify the accuracy of their information displayed in our Harvard Pilgrim Health Care and Tufts Health Plan provider directories (including practice location, phone number, hours of operation, ability of each individual provider to accept new patients, and any other information that affects the content or accuracy of the directories).

Reporting changes:

Changes to data should be reported via the CAQH Provider Data Portal (formerly known as CAQH ProView) for those who have implemented it.

Report any contractual affiliation changes to Harvard Pilgrim and/or Tufts Health Plan by:

(Please keep in mind that if your practice participates in both the Harvard Pilgrim and Tufts Health Plan provider networks, you will need to report demographic data changes to both plans as identified above.)

If Point32Health identifies potentially inaccurate provider information in the directories, we may outreach to your practice to validate or obtain accurate information. If we are unable to obtain a timely response, the provider record may be subject to suppression in the directories until up-to-date information is received.
