bcbs payers currently accept what type of claim for physician services?

c. ub - 04
d. cms - 1450

Explanation:

The CMS - 1500 form is the standard claim form used by physicians and other healthcare providers to bill Medicare and most private insurance companies for professional services. UB - 92 and UB - 04 are used for institutional claims (e.g., hospitals), and CMS - 1450 is another name for the UB - 04 form. So, for physician services, the CMS - 1500 is the appropriate claim form.

Answer:

B. CMS - 1500
