Maintaining up-to-date provider directories, including accurate phone numbers, addresses and panel status of in-network practitioners, is critical to helping seniors make informed choices about their healthcare.

Keeping provider directories up to date is often a massive undertaking for health plans and providers. In the past, Humana has had to make “millions of calls annually” to make sure its provider directory is accurate.

Lawmakers have pressed insurers to improve their provider directories. In October, Sens. Thom Tillis, Ron Wyden and Michael Bennet introduced the Requiring Enhanced & Accurate Lists of (REAL) Health Providers Act, which would strengthen requirements for Medicare Advantage plans to maintain accurate directories.
Becker’s Payer Issues also cited an April 2023 study in JAMA Health Forum (which found physician information is often inconsistent across payer directories) to emphasize the challenges associated with provider data.
