The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the No Surprises Act require Highmark to conduct an outreach to providers at a minimum of every 90 days to validate their provider directory information. Verifying your data consistently ensures accurate claims processing and allows members to make informed decisions regarding their health care needs based on the information in the provider directory.
Professional providers are now required to validate their Highmark Provider Directory information within the new Provider Data Maintenance (PDM) tool in NaviNet® every 90 days. Reminder: Practitioners will no longer receive calls from Atlas or use PrimeHub, Atlas’ provider data management software, to update information.
Please be aware that providers who don't validate their data quarterly may be removed from the Highmark online directory.

The attestation process through Atlas is quick and easy. Just follow these steps…
If you haven’t attested your provider directory information this quarter, you will receive a letter from Atlas to review your provider information. Some providers may also receive emails from Highmark about validating their directory information through the Atlas website this quarter. To ensure delivery of emails from Highmark, please add the following email address, resourcecenter@highmark.com , to your address book.
If you need additional information regarding the attestation process, Atlas’ step-by-step guide is available on the Provider Resource Center.
