MassHealth has issued revisions to the Eligibility Verification System (EVS) message codes in Appendix Y of all provider manuals. The following changes were made:
- added codes related to the new ACOs. These codes were announced in March 2018 and appeared in All Provider Bulletin 275: MassHealth EVS Codes and Restrictive Messages for 2018 Managed Care Health Plans;
- placed outdated codes at the end of the document in a new section titled “Obsolete Codes”;
- edited some active codes for clarity and updated content for other active codes;
- restructured the document table so that the structure mirrors the order in which the provider accesses the information.
