Checking Online
After submitting a claim, you can check the status online to verify if your claim has been received, pended or finalized. You can also verify the descriptions for any claim denials.
You or your billing agent can obtain real-time results by checking claim status through the Availity® Claim Status
Tool. The Claim Status Tool provides the equivalent of an Explanation of Benefits (EOB), including line item breakdowns and detailed
denial descriptions. All results are printable and can be used as a duplicate EOB for another insurance carrier when requested. See our
Claim Status tool user guide 
for more details.
Only registered Availity users can access the Claim Status Tool. If you aren’t registered, go to Availity
and select "Register" to complete the guided online process, at no cost. If you don’t have Availity access, you may obtain basic claim status
online by completing a claim status request (276 transaction) via your preferred web vendor.
Checking via Telephone
If you don’t have online access or need to make an adjustment, you may call provider customer service numbers for assistance:
Commercial claims – 800-447-7828
Federal Employee Program (FEP) claims – 800-634-3569
Healthy Montana Kids (HMK) claims – 855-258-3489
Medicare Advantage claims – Individual: 877-774-8592 and Group: 877-299-1008
Reminder: Don’t Submit Duplicate Claims
If your claim did not process the way you anticipated, it is important that you do not submit a duplicate claim for the same patient. Duplicate claims typically result in additional denials.
