Assist members and providers in utilizing and delivering the most appropriate, least restrictive medical and BH care services to our members in the right place and at the right time. Promote the integrated management and delivery of physical and BH services to members. 4
5 BH program goals (cont.) Achieve Amerigroup Kansas, Inc. quality initiatives, including those related to HEDIS, the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment performance requirements. Work with members, providers and community supports to provide tools and an environment that supports members toward their recovery goals. 5

12 Care coordination and communication It is especially important to: (cont.) o Gather information about other providers, services and medications o Follow-up on labs that have been ordered o Follow-up on referrals that have been made o Document all the coordination in the member record 12
13 Is precertification required? Our Precertification Lookup Tool lets you search by market, member s health care program and CPT code to determine if precertification is required for certain CPT codes. 13
14 Precertification status You can check the status of your precertification request on the provider website or contact Provider Services to speak with an associate. 14
15 Clinical criteria In addition to utilizing the Kansas definition of medical necessity, Amerigroup utilizes clinical criteria to evaluate the medical necessity of requests for care and services as follows: o MH BH medical policies and Clinical Utilization Management (UM) Guidelines o SUD KCPC is based on the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) patient-placement criteria Additional level-of-care criteria will be used for services not included in the BH medical policies, Clinical UM Guidelines or KCPC ASAM criteria sets (e.g., health care management services, waiver services). 15
16 Clinical criteria (cont.) For more information about additional criteria in use by Amerigroup, please visit All criteria used by Amerigroup are approved by the Amerigroup Medical Advisory Committee and the Amerigroup National Medical Policy Committee. For information about how to access BH medical policies and Clinical UM Guidelines, please call Provider Services or go to 16
17 Psychiatric observation The code for this outpatient observation code has been changed from H2013 to S9485 Reimbursable up to three days per KMAP provider bulletin from June 2017 KMAP HOSPITAL BULLETIN Primary or secondary BH diagnosis is required No authorization is required; Prior authorization look up tool is being updated 17
18 Inpatient MH services Precertification or initial/concurrent/continued stay review inpatient requests may be requested 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by phone or fax. o Phone: o Fax: Precertification or initial inpatient requests for services require authorization.

20 Serious Emotional Disturbance waiver Providers must submit service authorization requests to the Kansas Assessment Management Information System (KAMIS). Community Mental Health Centers (CMHC) work in coordination with the Amerigroup BH case managers to conduct wraparound and plan of care reviews. If there is a delay in receiving the authorization notice (10 business days or more), contact Provider Services at to notify us of the delay. 20
21 Outpatient MH services To request additional services beyond the prespecified authorization limits, submit a request utilizing one of the following forms: CMHCs utilize KanCare Service Authorization Form All other outpatient behavioral health providers utilize Precertification Request Form. Please allow up to 14 days from day of receipt to process request per National Committee for Quality Assurance standards for all outpatient requests. 21
22 Outpatient MH services (cont.) Psychological/neuropsychological testing six hours per year; To request services utilize the Psychological Testing Request Form located on our provider website. Admission evaluation July 2017 removed the annual limit for procedures codes and
23 SUD services SUD providers must utilize the KCPC screening and assessment tool.* SUD treatment includes the following levels of care: Outpatient level I individual and group counseling Intensive outpatient level II Residential reintegration level III.1 Residential intermediate levels III.3 and III.5 Auxiliary services (assessment and referral, Medicaid case management, peer support, and crisis intervention) * Services after the initial authorization require approval of continued stay review. 23
24 SUD services (cont.) For inquiries, contact call Jason Keezer at , ext or BH at , ext BH ROI form is the form for SUD providers to complete when they are needing the Kansas Client Placement Criteria sent to them. Due to CFR 42 Part II, SUD information is redacted from being able to be shared in systems like Patient360. Providers also need to ensure that they have the appropriate releases on file to share SUD information about members they receive information about. 24
25 Authorization process Providers should only include one member per fax being sent so that the members health information is protected when we process the request. When a provider submits a request for authorization we process and review the request. We will respond to inpatient requests within X 1 calendar days and outpatient requests within 14 days. If we have questions pertaining to the request submitted, we will contact the person noted on the request. If we are unable to reach the requestor, we will leave a message. Please note timely response of the requestor is important so that the request can be fully vetted. 25
26 Clinical and administrative denials The denial is known as a Notice of Adverse Benefit Determination That means our medical director denied or reduced coverage of the service you requested. A copy of the NOA including the members appeal rights, will be mailed to the requesting provider, the member s PCP and/or the attending physician and the member. Providers have a right to discuss this decision with our medical director by calling Providers Services at
27 Clinical vs administrative denials An administrative NOA may include: o Late notification of admission Providers must notify Amerigroup within 24 hours, or the next business day, of any inpatient admission of an Amerigroup member. o Failure to request precertification of a service that requires prior precertification. o Member ineligibility on the date of service. o Notification that requested service/benefit was a noncovered service/benefit. o Notification that the limit on the benefit has been reached. A medical necessity NOA may include: o Lack of clinical documentation. o Failure of the clinical information to meet medical necessity definition. 27
28 Peer-to-peer Amerigroup is committed to working with all providers to ensure such guidelines are understood. Providers have a right to discuss this decision with our medical director by calling Providers Services at Peer-to-peer conversations (between an Amerigroup medical director and the provider clinicians) are one way that Amerigroup is able to ensure the completeness and accuracy of the clinical information and provide a one-on-one communication about the guidelines as necessary. Medical record reviews are another way to ensure that clinical information is complete and accurate. Providers that are able to appropriately respond in a timely fashion to peer-peer and medical record requests are less likely to encounter dissatisfaction with the utilization management process. Amerigroup is committed to ensuring a process that is quick and easy and will work with participating providers to ensure a mutually satisfying process where possible. 28
29 Appealing an NOA If your request for services is reduced or denied, you may file an appeal within 30 calendar days of receipt of the NOA. An additional three days is allowed if the notice is mailed. A provider may appeal on behalf of a member upon receipt of written authorization from the member. When the health of a member requires a quick response or a decision is less than 30 calendar days, a provider, at the request of the member, can ask Amerigroup for an expedited appeal. Call Member Services toll free at for help filing an expedited appeal. 29

41 Psychotropic medications Providers must inform all members being considered for prescription of psychotropic medications of the benefits, risks and side effects of the medication; alternate medications; and other forms of treatment. The medical record is expected to reflect such conversations as having occurred. Members on psychotropic medications may be at increased risk for various disorders. As such, it is expected that providers are knowledgeable about side effects and risks of medications and regularly inquire about and seek treatment for any side effects from medications. 41
