Provider and Admin Request for Information

Arkansas Blue Cross and Blue Shield, BlueAdvantage Administrators of Arkansas, Health Advantage and Octave Blue Cross and Blue Shield (“Arkansas Blue Cross”) are pleased to announce that later this Spring, we will begin using an electronic credentialing application process, the Hub Apply Portal, powered by HealthStream and their CredentialStream tool, for all provider enrollments, initial credentialing, recredentialing, provider contracts and provider data updates. With the Hub, we anticipate several process enhancements that will enable Arkansas Blue Cross to utilize an effective and efficient method to expedite the network management process for all commercial and Blue Medicare product lines.

Every provider credentialed with Arkansas Blue Cross who have "non-delegated credentialing" and their admins who manage their contracts must have a HealthStream account. Without an account, providers will not be able to be credentialed in our networks. Each provider and admin only need one account regardless of the number of organizations they are associated with.

Please complete the form below to begin the HealthStream account setup process. Each email address provided will receive an email from [email protected] with instructions on setting up an account. Please add [email protected] as a safe sender in your email system to ensure the instructions are not treated as junk mail.
