Prior authorization update for prosthetics

CarePartners of Connecticut is pleased to share that we have reevaluated our utilization management criteria related to upper and lower limb prosthetic devices, and will now only require prior authorization for microprocessor/complex components of prosthetics.

Prior authorization is no longer required for the standard prosthetic build codes indicated on this document.

We’ve updated our CarePartners of Connecticut Prior Authorization, Notification, and No Prior Authorization Medical Necessity Guidelines to reflect this change.
