Prior Authorization Lookup Tool


Please verify benefit coverage prior to rendering services. Inpatient services and non-participating providers always require prior authorization.

Please note:

  1. This tool is for outpatient services only.
  2. Inpatient services and non-participating providers always require prior authorization.
