To qualify for the Claim Payment Advance program, hospitals and physicians in Arizona must be a part of the BCBSAZ network and have seen at least a 33 percent reduction in claims for fully insured plans. Organizations must also be in good standing with professional licensing boards and BCBSAZ.

BCBSAZ is allocating $5 million in loans to support Arizona small businesses, $10 million in accelerated payments to providers and sending prepayments to more than 2,300 primary care providers in one of its value-based care programs.
