02/06/2019 - MAINECARE SERVICES UPDATE - VERY IMPORTANT
Courtesy Reviews No Longer Available under the Atrezzo System for MaineCare Services
Effective March 1, 2019, KEPRO, in coordination with the Office of MaineCare Services, will implement the following process change to the Atrezzo system.
KEPRO will no longer process Courtesy Reviews of service authorization requests for individuals who do NOT have MaineCare eligibility. Instead, as with all other MaineCare services that require Prior Authorization (PA), requests for retroactive authorization of services shall be reviewed by KEPRO after the individual has gained retroactive MaineCare eligibility.
In some cases, an individual’s financial eligibility for medical services may be determined retroactively. If covered services were provided during a period of retroactive eligibility, the provider may submit a retroactive authorization request for the covered services that require PA.
Please submit requests for retroactive authorizations within three months of a member’s updated financial eligibility for MaineCare. Please see the MaineCare Benefits Manual, Chapter I, Section 1.04-1(A) for more detail.
