eviCore changes reconsideration process for PTs' utilization categories

Effective immediately, eviCore healthcare has changed the process by which physical therapists request reconsideration of an assigned utilization category. The changes apply to category assignments that are effective Aug. 1, 2016, and affect reconsideration requests that are currently in progress.

If you are a physical therapist who provides services to BCN HMO (commercial) and BCN AdvantageSM members, you'll want to familiarize yourself with the revised process.

For the additional details you'll need to know, read the article "Changes in eviCore's reconsideration process for physical therapists' utilization categories" in the July-August 2016 issue of BCN Provider News.
