Anthem Data Nuances
Last updated: May 8, 2026
Anthem often posts data by putting NPI-Type-2 values in the "EIN" field. This means that in order to get rates for a specific provider within Anthem's postings, you have to find their NPI-Type-2 (also known as group NPI) and include it in your search. We break down how to find this value in our Provider Search Guide: https://help.serifhealth.com/category/22-provider-search-guide
As it relates to behavioral health, Anthem is a part of Elevance, and Elevance owns a separate company called Carelon that has 2 nationwide divisions: CarelonRx, Carelon Behavioral Health. Carelon Behavioral Health is formerly known as 'Beacon Health Options'. So behavioral health rates may show up under 'Beacon Health Options' postings.
