A Pre-certification or Predetermination Tool is used by the provider to submit clinical information for an authorization request (precert or predetermination). If a provider uses this tool, chart records and letters of medical necessity will not be needed unless the tool is selected for auditing.
The Clinical Data Submission Tools on this site may be used to submit clinical information for either a pre-service review (pre-certification or pre-determination) or Post Service review, including pre or post claim submission.
