Overview
Preauthorization & Utilization Management
The medical UR/UM component for Medicare Advantage, Managed Medicaid and other managed care plans is a critical function that requires medical depth, breadth and resourcefulness. Members of SFUR’s physician panel have been providing UR/UM for Medicare & Medicaid Managed plans in sixteen states for over five years.
The SFUR UR/UM physician panelists that specialize in various managed care plans provide decisions for Inpatient versus observation, authorization of expensive imaging services, authorization of durable medical equipment (DME), authorization of various surgical procedures, and numerous critical medical decisions affecting the managed care insured population.
Managed Care Clinical Criteria
- Precertification, and preauthorization programs ensure that network doctors
and hospitals provide the most appropriate and cost-effective care. - Clinical necessity and criteria help identify cases that may benefit from the assistance of various care management programs.
- SFUR physician panelists that provide UR/UM are fluent in InterQual® clinical criteria for preauthorization of hospital admissions to determine the medical necessity of hospital admissions.
- Peer Review is used to make final judgements about quality of care in many quality assurance activities.
- To overcome the low reliability of Peer Review, input from several reviewers is often recommended to point out overlooked information or allow for reconsideration of opinions and thus improve reliability.
