Here you can view bills and adjustments processed by the managed care organization (MCO) and/or BWC. Medical providers are paid the lesser of the billed amount, BWC fee schedule or the MCO panel amount, if you are on the MCO's provider panel. How to view bills online All providers who have created an e-account (user ID and password) on this website may view basic medical billing information for all bills associated with their valid 11-digit BWC provider number. To view medical bill information, you will need the following: - An e-account;
- BWC provider number;
- Specific date-of-service range to limit your search (maximum range is 90 days);
- Search type, medical or prescription.
What you can view online You can search for bills in 90-day increments based on date of service (DOS). Searches will return bills processed within two years of the current date. You will see no more than 10 records at a time. If your search has more than 10 bills, you will see the number of bills in the record table. Here is the information you can view for each bill.
