ChiroCare Network Tier Assignments for 2025

ChiroCare network provider tier assignment for 2025 will be effective 1/1/2025 which may impact your prior authorization requirements. Prior authorization requirements can be found on the Fulcrum provider portal at www.fulcrumproviderportal.com.


ChiroCare providers will be receiving a tiering letter by USPS mail that will inform you of your 2025 tier assignment no later than 12/1/2024.


If you have any questions, reach out to Provider Services at providerservices@fulcrumhealthinc.org.

QConnect Correspondence via Fax to be Discontinued

Some network providers have mentioned they have received multiple fax notifications in regard to authorization requests. To help ease administrative burden, QConnect correspondence delivery method will be changing to email delivery instead of fax notifications.


Please ensure your email address used to log in to Fulcrum's Provider Portal is active and monitored for authorization related communications.


The change from fax notifications to email notifications will occur no later than 01/1/2025. You will still receive a copy of your authorization outcome letter through USPS mail.
