How to Bill for Therapy Services
Enter one date of service per claim line (the From and To dates must be the same). Include
the designated provider modifier on all claims. After prior authorization is issued, billed
services must match the approved authorization. Be sure to include the Authorization Number on
all claims.
How to Know When Prior Authorization is Required
Some services always require prior authorization. Recipients can receive, once per calendar year,
medically necessary service on 12 separate days (if age 21or older) or 24 separate days (if under
age 21) per discipline, before prior authorization is required. A day may include more than one
provider type and/or session before prior authorization is required. Evaluations/Reevaluations
do not count as one of these days and do not require prior authorization, however, they are limited as specified in Table.
