If an authorization is done by telephone, can the treatment plan, assessment and last three (3) session notes be E-mailed?
If additional information is needed, the caller will be instructed to fax or mail the PA form and required documentation. This PA will not be approved during the phone call. The first PA request is the initial authorization and any services requested after this are considered continued treatment. A PA request for continued treatment must be accompanied by the current/updated Diagnostic Assessment, current/updated Treatment Plan and the last 3 progress notes for the therapy being requested. On-line submission of required documentation is not currently available.
