IMPORTANT UPDATE: Extending the current UPMC Health Plan utilization model for selected MSK, cardiology, and radiology codes
Jan. 2022Important Notices
Prior authorizations for procedures and imaging that were previously managed by HealthHelp (diagnostic imaging, cardiology, and MSK) will be approved until March 1st without review of clinical documentation. However, prior authorization requests must still be submitted for related claims to be paid. Please ensure that requests are submitted with complete information to increase the likelihood that they will meet criteria and be auto approved, eliminating the need for manual review and delayed authorizations.
