Evolent Specialty Services
Peach State Health Plan has contracted with Evolent Specialty Services, an affiliate of Magellan Health Services, for radiology benefit management.
The program includes management of non-emergent, high-tech, outpatient radiology services through prior authorization. This program is consistent with industry-wide efforts to ensure clinically appropriate quality of care and to manage the increasing utilization of these services.
Peach State Health Plan oversees the Evolent program and is responsible for claims adjudication. Evolent manages non-emergent outpatient imaging/radiology services through contractual relationships with free-standing facilities.
Prior authorization is required for the following outpatient radiology procedures:
- CT/CTA/CCTA
- MRI/MRA
- PET Scan
KEY PROVISION:
Providers rendering the above services should verify that the necessary authorization has been obtained. Failure to do so may result in non-payment of your claim.
