Issued: November 22, 2022

On November 17, 2022, it was communicated in Provider Bulletin #135 that Partners was implementing a deadline of five days after the reporting period ends for providers/EORs to submit backup staffing and attestation reports.


What is happening?


Partners is extending that
deadline to the last day of the next reporting period to allow providers/EORs sufficient time to gather and verify the information being submitted. (Example: Back-Up staffing reports and attestations of no backup staffing incidents for dates 11/1/22-11/15/22 should be submitted by 11/30/22.)


Who can providers contact with questions?


Questions regarding back-up staffing and attestation reports should be sent to:
backupstaffing@partnersbhm.org. You may also visit the Partners’ website at https://providers.partnersbhm.org/back-up-staffing/ for more information on backup staffing.
