Trigger: A healthcare provider submits a prior authorization request for a medical service, device, or prescription drug covered under a Medicare or Medicaid plan.

  1. Receive the authorization request and supporting clinical documentation.
  2. Verify member eligibility and specific CMS plan coverage details.
  3. Evaluate clinical data against CMS National and Local Coverage Determinations (NCDs/LCDs).
  4. Route complex or edge-case requests to medical directors for specialized review.
  5. Record the final authorization decision and update the core claims system.
  6. Issue standardized decision notices and appeal rights to the provider and member.
  7. Submit required authorization data and compliance reporting to CMS systems.

Outcome: The request is formally approved, modified, or denied according to CMS regulations, with the decision logged and communicated to the provider and member.
