Reminder Effective August 2: New Prior Authorization Requirements for Advanced Imaging (Cardiology and Radiology)

In May and July, we shared that CareFirst and EviCore are collaborating to provide services for CareFirst members enrolled in our fully insured commercial plans for Cardiology and Radiology Advanced Imaging.

The system opened on July 15, for ordering providers to submit a prior authorization request for outpatient services to EviCore for impacted members for dates of service August 2 and beyond.

As a reminder, effective August 2, identified Advanced Imaging for Cardiology and Radiology services require prior authorization for CareFirst commercial fully insured members on the Facets system.
