BCN: Sign Up for pharmacogenomics reports and April updates

May 2, 2023

We want to make sure you stay informed about your patients and practices who are offered the opportunity to receive a free pharmacogenomics test as part of BCN’s new Blue Cross Personalized MedicineSM program.

Please sign up to receive regular reports by emailing RXQualityPrograms@bcbsm.com with the names and email addresses of desired recipients for your group. When you do, we’ll send you a report, typically monthly, through secure encrypted email with information on your group’s patients who have been offered a RightMed® PGx test and their primary care physicians and prescribers.

If your group has already opted in to receive these reports, thank you. We’ll stop sending you emails like this one when we send additional mailings for this program that involve your group as you’ll receive that information through the monthly reports. 

BCN mails letters to physicians in April about additional pharmacogenomics test opportunities

Blue Care Network mailed additional letters at the end of April 2023, to primary care physicians and prescribers with BCN patients who are being offered the opportunity to receive a pharmacogenomics test.

One or more of your physicians is included in this additional mailing. Attached is a generic copy of the letter mailed. In addition, each physician received a list of his or her patients being offered the test and a copy of the member communication (also attached).

If you would like a list of your physicians and members involved in this mailing or the earlier January and March mailings, please contact your provider consultant or sign up to receive monthly reports at RXQualityPrograms@bcbsm.com.

Please ask your physicians to authorize requested tests

As members request the test, our vendor OneOme is faxing the primary care physician’s office and asking that the PCP (or office staff on behalf of the PCP) authorize the test online. This can be done easily by creating a login at MyRightMed.com/BCBSM-providers.*

If you have a pharmacist on staff, the pharmacist can support creating the PCP’s login to assist with processing these requests.

We appreciate your assistance in encouraging your practices to authorize these tests so the member’s test can be sent out quickly.

Training on Blue Cross Personalized Medicine for you and your practices

You and your physicians can learn more about Blue Cross Personalized Medicine on page 7 of the May-June BCN Provider News. We also announced a webinar for behavioral health providers on page 18 of the May-June BCN Provider News.
