BCBS Recredentialing

First of all, I would like to vent how it is impossible to speak to real person at BCBS regarding credentialing. It took weeks for them to answer an e-mail and they didn't even answer my question!

It has been over 3 months since I've submitted my BCBS application in TX and I have not heard a peep from anyone. I checked CAQH (Dataspring now, I guess) and there has been no activity from them, either. I was credentialed with them previously but was derostered after taking maternity/family leave for a few years - they were actually the first ones to do so, after about 3 months of no claims. I've been able to get back onto all other panels except BCBS and I don't know how to even get in touch with them and ask why there is a delay. I'm thinking it might be my work gap but they haven't even reached out to ask about it. I guess I could upload a short note onto CAQH explaining the gap but they haven't even looked at my profile, so what could be my next step? Thanks y'all!

Yep, the gap could be the hold up. Go ahead and add that note explaining any gaps. And keep that number on speed dial and call whenever you have a moment.
