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.
  3. This tool does not reflect benefits coverage* nor does it include an exhaustive listing of all non-covered services (for example, experimental procedures, cosmetic surgery, etc.) — refer to your provider manual for coverage/limitations.

Services may be listed as requiring prior authorization that may not be covered benefits for a particular member. Please verify benefit coverage prior to rendering services.
