Naomi Denson (00:00) hello? Hi.
Naomi Denson (00:06) Nobody’s here yet.
Naomi Denson (00:34) Everybody.
Naomi Denson (00:57) Hey, Brian. Hello. How are you? I’m good. How are you? Good? You’re the only one here so far?
Brian Blackburn (01:08) Well, isn’t that splendid?
Naomi Denson (01:13) I did have one question for you on the Texas positions group enrollment data. When I ran the payer mapping, it looks like you have blue cross blue shield of New Mexico listed in Texas, but no blue cross blue shield of Texas payers, is that a typo, should that be blue cross, blue shield of Texas?
Brian Blackburn (01:33) It is possible, and that’s going to be a question that we need to direct to Victor. Okay. So let’s wait for him to hop on here. He could probably answer that pretty quick.
Naomi Denson (01:43) Okay. The.
Brian Blackburn (01:45) Only reason that I could imagine that we wouldn’t is if the blue cross blue shield of Texas was part of the… forgive me, I’m going to get my acronyms messed up the IPO that they are a part of, which handles the credentialing for several payers. So it’s possible. Do you know which IPO?
Naomi Denson (02:08) That is, yeah, I.
Brian Blackburn (02:10) don’t, Victor knows that one he’s been working with Kelly.
Naomi Denson (02:15) Yeah. The only payers on there are, it doesn’t look like any of them are they all look like pretty straightforward payers? Yeah.
Brian Blackburn (02:27) I would imagine that blue cross blue shield of Texas is part of that ipa and we wouldn’t handle credentialing for them, but we can validate that with, okay.
Naomi Denson (02:37) I just didn’t know because this is like a bordering state enrollment, which typically providers with blue cross are only enrolled in their home state.
Brian Blackburn (02:46) So.
Naomi Denson (02:46) It would be blue cross blue shield of New Mexico that’s how we would have to import it and map it. I just wanted to, but nobody else is here yet. I don’t know other people confirmed they were coming, but.
Brian Blackburn (03:01) Yeah, that’s a lonely.
Naomi Denson (03:03) Yeah… but sometimes.
Brian Blackburn (03:09) when these meetings are external, they don’t give us a notification. Then it takes a few minutes to get logged into zoom because we’re used to using teams. So, yeah.
Naomi Denson (03:18) That’s all right. We’ll give them some time.
Naomi Denson (03:28) I think that might be all I have for your side. Right now. We’re still waiting on gainesville and then waiting on, we need to get clarification on the Ohio bureau of workers for Florida for Tampa, but everything else we’ve received for you guys is done?
Brian Blackburn (03:43) Okay. And I have no new updates on the new practice, we’re still under due diligence for them. So as soon as we feel like as soon as that closes, then I’ll get them added. So.
Naomi Denson (03:54) Okay. And Tamela was just like she just emailed me seconds before the call. So… I’ll give everybody a few minutes more.
Brian Blackburn (04:17) And we’ll probably get a test run in onboarding a new physician at our anderson Shapiro eye group. We just extended an offer to a new physician. So I’ll… walk through with that leader creating that.
Naomi Denson (04:34) So, possible new enrollment needs there.
Brian Blackburn (04:36) Yeah, some possible new enrollment needs. Yeah. So… we’re just waiting on her to sign the contract and then we’ll get her built a medallion and start the process there.
Brian Blackburn (04:54) Okay, perfect. Yeah, good test run here. Yeah.
Naomi Denson (05:06) You want me to send an email to the group and see if anybody’s planning to join us?
Brian Blackburn (05:11) You can let me, I’m going to ping Victor on the side here and just see what’s up now. Okay?
Brian Blackburn (05:24) I don’t know way message last seen two minutes ago.
Naomi Denson (06:04) It’s never taken anybody this long to get in.
Brian Blackburn (06:07) No, you’re right? You’re right? They’re normally here by now?
Naomi Denson (06:09) They must be all very busy.
Brian Blackburn (06:11) Yeah, I don’t know. My rule of thumb is like, you know, 10 minutes max, five minutes normally?
Naomi Denson (06:20) Yeah, that’s usually mine too. I wait 10 minutes and if nobody joins, I’m like, all right. Well, I guess you guys didn’t want to talk to me today?
Brian Blackburn (06:27) Yeah, I got other stuff.
Naomi Denson (06:30) Usually at five minutes, I’ll send an email and if five more minutes go by and nobody joins, we’ll… call it.
Brian Blackburn (06:38) Yeah.
Brian Blackburn (06:49) I’m looking at your clock there at one 37, and I don’t know why my computer is always two minutes behind. So I always know I have to like log in like at the 28 mark, if it’s on the 30.
Naomi Denson (07:03) Oh, that’s weird. Isn’t it? I’m like a satellite.
Brian Blackburn (07:06) It should be, and I don’t know if it’s because sometimes that gets off. If I’m not like connected to the VPN or something, I don’t know, I’m always two minutes off. Okay?
Naomi Denson (07:17) I always hate when somebody’s sharing their screen and they’re in a different time zone than I am. And, I get panic, I’m like what time is it? How long have we been on this call?
Brian Blackburn (07:26) Yeah.
Naomi Denson (08:12) Matt said that most of them are in a corporate call and asked if you and Victor can join. And I said Brian’s here, but, so, I guess that’s it unless Victor, yeah, but otherwise, I can send him an email about the New Mexico blue cross, yeah.
Brian Blackburn (08:28) Just asking that specifically. And I guess we’ll reconvene next week.
Naomi Denson (08:34) Alright. Well, that sounds good. Alright. Thanks for joining. Yeah.
Brian Blackburn (08:38) Thank you. Appreciate it. Alright, bye bye.
