NAAOP Webinar: Challenging Medicare Advantage Denials
CMS recently published a final regulation establishing a new set of rules that O&P providers can use to challenge Medicare Advantage (MA) denials of coverage. This webinar will explain these new regulations in detail and give participants new tools to help ensure your Medicare Advantage patients get better access to orthotic and prosthetic care.
The New Regulations:
Create new procedures to prohibit misuse and abuse of prior authorization
Require that MA plans use Traditional Medicare coverage criteria
Prohibit the use of internally-developed coverage guidelines in key situations
Require transparency when MA plans create coverage standards of their own
Ban MA coverage algorithms and software that do not account for individual patient needs
Require MA denials to be approved by a physician or other qualified professional
