1 Prior Authorization Updates Managed Health Services (MHS) requires prior authorization as a condition of payment for many services. This Notice contains information regarding such prior authorization requirements and is applicable to all products offered by MHS, with changes effective July 1, Refer to the Frequently Asked Questions below for guidance regarding how to obtain prior authorizations from MHS. 1. Quantitative Testing for Drugs of Abuse & Genetic/Molecular Diagnostic Testing Laboratory providers have experienced a high number of claim denials for both Quantitative Testing for Drugs of Abuse and Genetic/Molecular Diagnostic Testing due to lack of prior authorization by the ordering provider. MHS will be requiring laboratory providers to contact ordering providers to verify that a prior authorization number has been obtained for these services. It is the ordering provider s responsibility to request prior authorization for Quantitative Testing for Drugs of Abuse and Genetic/Molecular Diagnostic Testing services. 2. Specialized Radiation Therapy MHS will be requiring ordering providers to obtain prior authorization for prior authorization for services categorized as Radiation Oncology. It is the ordering provider s responsibility to request prior authorization for Intensity Modulation Radiation Therapy, Proton and Neutron Beam Therapy, and Stereotactic Radiotherapy. 3. Durable Medical Equipment MHS is making updates to our 2014 authorization requirements. Please reference the attached list or visit the provider portal at mhsindiana.com to review HCPC codes that will require authorization for MHS contracted and non-contracted providers. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS How do I determine if a specific service requires prior authorization? You may determine which specific codes require prior authorization by visiting our Prior Auth PreScreen tool at mhsindiana.com. Just enter the CPT or HCPC code and the PreScreen Tool will advise you whether the service requires prior authorization. Additionally, enclosed is a spreadsheet which also lists the updated codes in these categories which require prior authorization. How do I request a prior authorization for these services? You may submit the prior authorization request by faxing an authorization to The fax authorization form can be found on our website at mhsindiana.com. You may call MHS Medical Management at You may submit the prior authorization request utilizing our Secure Web Portal at mhsindiana.com.
