Clarifying Medical Necessity Criteria

Our group is working with a number of clients currently and a key componenet wrking with both payers of healthcare as well as providers of healthcare is underrstanding and executing medical necesity criteria.  Care managers often struggle over how to intrepret the criteria fairly and povider struggle at how to express the criteria that an idividual patient is exhibiting. Medical Necessity Criteria (MNC), one of the most vital aspects of healthcare and treatment, is still very ambiguous.   Numerous definitions for MNC can be challenging for providers and practitioners to know just exactly how different interpretations can impact care.  Please see the article in its entirety by Robert Levine that  will outline what is essential to understand about Medical Necessity Criteria, and how personal interpretation maintains a role in treatment distinguishing between what is “beneficial” for consumer health and what is “essential.”  Please sign up for our newsletter.

In tomorrow blog I will review MNC exceptions.
