Sec. 1.
(a) Members
may appeal the denial or modification of prior authorization of any Medicaid
covered service under 405 IAC 1.1.
(b) Any provider submitting a request for
prior authorization under
405 IAC 5-3, which has been
denied either in whole or in part, may appeal the decision under 405 IAC 1.1
after exhausting the administrative remedies provided in this rule.
(c) When there is insufficient information
submitted to render a decision, a prior authorization request will be suspended
for up to thirty (30) days, and the office will request additional information
from the provider. Suspension is not a final decision on the merits of the
request and is not appealable. If the provider does not submit the additional
information requested within thirty (30) days, the request shall be denied.
Denial is a final decision and may be appealed pursuant to subsections (a) and
(b).
