Thank you to all of you who are commenting with more prefixes! It’s great to see this list growing. I appreciate all the feedback and some of the tips that come with them.
Because the comments are getting so numerous, I’m going to start deleting the ones that get integrated into the list. I’ll add the screen name of the person who supplied the prefix, unless someone requests otherwise.
Please let others know of this information so they can find what they need. Leave comments with anything else you’d like to know.
Below are not the only known BC/BS/Anthem prefixes, but the only ones we’ve verified by calling their 800 number.
(If you can’t find what you’re looking for, try the non-verified list of prefixes.)

I am so excited, you are wonderful! I have been hunting all over the place for this info. Thanks so much
Thanks for the help. We were given the alpha wrong. It was
really HLF (Hiland Dairy) which we had to call the employer finally.
It is (anthem)BCBS Missouri/benfs-800-488-5030/precert:”anthem UM”
866-776-4793.

866-350-7595
WHAT IS THE BCBS PREFIX FOR NEW BCBS UNICARE?

BLUE CROSS MASS

BOSTON MA 02215-3326
Awesome resource, thanks for compiling it. I do DME billing and collection.
Channin: when there is “AN” following the 3 letter prefix, that is Anthem.
Also, here are some I have uncovered that are not on the list above. These are all confirmed either via phone calls or an EOB:
ARM = AK STEEL (FKA ARMCO), Anthem (I think AKG is also Anthem/AK Steel in Ohio, I have run into a few AK_ that are from this employer)
AQW = BCBS of Ohio (have to call on the Anthem out of state line)
AUG = BCBS of Michigan
AUY, AZQ = Anthem of WI Medicare Supplement
AZF = BCBS of Mississippi
AZW = BCBS of IL
The list above says BCN is Premera of Washington, but I have found it to be Regence of Oregon–maybe these 2 have merged or affiliated somehow.
BEG = Michigan
BEV = BCBS of California
BGG = Ohio (I think this is discontinued)
BHH = Minnesota (Benedictine Health System)
BSO = BCBS of Alabama
BXT = MN Power

ECX = Excel Energy (Minnesota)
EKA = Anthem
ELG = Minnesota (EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN GOOD SAMARITAN SOCIETY)

ETH = BCBS of Illinois
EXA = Ohio (Extendicare Health Services)
FDU = Anthem (UBEW)
FIA = Anthem of WI
FQF = BCBS of MN (Fleet Wholesale Supply)
GBH = BCBS of IL
GH_ = Delphi group of BCBS of MI (Northwood NPN)
GM_ = General Motors group of BCBS of MI (Northwood NPN)
GPP = BCBS of MN (Gold ‘N Plump)
GYA is up there–this is the Goodyear group of Anthem of Ohio
The list has HHM as South Carolina, but I have found it to be Rhode Island (?)
HJK = BCBS of Texas
HPU = BCBS of IL
HQM = Mountain State (WV) Medicare Advantage plan
IAZ = Wellmark of Iowa Medicare Blue PPO
IEF = BCBS of Florida
IEM, IPB = Empire BCBS (NY)
KCR = BCBS of Georgia, Kimberly-Clark
KQE = Minnesota
LMN = Minnesota (South Central MN Elec Workers)
MCD = Illinois
MLQ = Minnesota (MERRILL COMMUNICATIONS LLC)
MLV = Zenith Administrators, Minneapolis office
MPM = BCBS of SC
MSR = DMEnsions (BCBS of MI)

SVH = Minnesota (Supervalu supermarkets)
TAF = BCBS of MN/CCS
TEW = BCBS of IL
TFM = Minnesota (Duluth Building Trades)
TYM = Wellmark of Iowa (Tyson Foods)
UCR = Anthem, Charter Communications
UWE = BCBS of Ohio, but need to call the out of state ph #
The list has WMD as Nebraska, but I know for sure this is Wilson-McShane (claims admins, not a group) in Minnesota.
XNA = Regence BCBS of Idaho
XZ_ = Minnesota, XZG and XZS are PMAPs (or MSHOs, a Minnesota thing: Medicare Advantage/Medicaid combo HMO)
YRT = Anthem of Indiana
YYN = Pennsylvania (Highmark)
ZPM = Mountains State of WV Freedom Blue
As huge as your list is, I’m amazed I could add so many more. I think BCBS uses every possible 3 letter combination in the alphabet.
BNF=BCBS OF IL
We’ve compiled a list where I work and I out on the web. The address is
http://mypayerdirectory.com. It’s got the Medicaid and Medicare phone numbers too.
UBM-EMPIRE
OTW–Connecticut
Sammie,
I just saw your post. When you call the number for UHC, ask to speak with a representative in the United States. They MUST transfer you to the US without question. I do this for all my calls as 1/2 the time I can’t understand the person answering the phones. This works across the board for all out-sourced phone calls.
Hope this helps!!
