General Information
PLEASE REMEMBER: Do not send claims directly to Inclusive Health, CoreSource, or MedCost!
Please ignore the claims billing address on the member ID card or any address given to you on the telephone when verifying eligibility and benefits. You are under contract as a participating Inclusive Health provider through CNC and our instructions for filing claims supersede information given to you by Inclusive Health or CoreSource Representatives!
Inclusive Health, also known as the North Carolina Health Insurance Risk Pool (NCHIRP), has contracted with MedCost to use their provider network. As the chiropractic network for MedCost, CNC providers are participating providers with Inclusive Health.
Inclusive Health is NOT a MedCost payor, and should never be filed to MedCost. Inclusive Health is a separate entity that contracts with MedCost for their provider network.
In 2007, the North Carolina General Assembly passed Session Law 2007-0532, which created the NCHIRP. Their mission is to provide affordable health insurance coverage for North Carolina residents who are unable to obtain insurance through work or obtain reasonable insurance coverage due to pre-existing, high-risk health conditions. NCHIRP, now doing business as Inclusive Health, began plan coverage starting in January 2009.
CoreSource has been selected as the administrator for Inclusive Health. This includes eligibility and benefits, as well as adjudication of claims.
All claims for COVERED SERVICES provided to a beneficiary of a CNC contracted payor MUST be submitted to CNC. Participating providers who fail to submit all such claims to CNC may lose their status as an In-Network Provider.
If you have any questions about an Inclusive Health/CoreSource claim, please contact your CNC Provider Rep at (877) 426-2411 before calling Inclusive Health/CoreSource.
