Welcome Providers

Contracted providers are an essential part of delivering quality care to our members. We value our partnership and appreciate the family-like relationship that you pass on to our members.

In an ongoing effort to improve our web-based services we have created a new Provider Portal. Included in this new secure site you will find:

Eligibility Medical And Pharmacy Claim History Claim Status Check Batch Claim Submission Claim Appeals Authorization Requests Review Current Authorizations Care Management Program Referral

One unfortunate fact of this transition is that all prior Cook Children's Health Plan Provider Portal Users will be required to re-register to use the new Provider Portal. Please use the ICN number you currently use to access the old claims status portal as your Provider ID to check claim status online.
