The following table provides the prior authorization (PA) address for each of the care management organizations (CMOs), as well as the Traditional Medicaid fee-for-service vendor address for submission of PA requests, PA updates, and PA attachments. Please note that PA requests for carved-out risk-based managed care (RBMC) services, hospice services, and Traditional Medicaid members, as well as PA requests for any other nonpharmacy services outside RBMC and Care Select, should be submitted to the following fee-for-service address noted for review.

This table provides address information in a real-time format to ensure that providers have the most current address information for submission of these documents. The Quick Reference Guide on the Contact Us web page of indianamedicaid.com also contains PA submission addresses. The information in the following table supersedes any addresses listed in the Quick Reference Guide and should be used to ensure accurate mailings of PA information to the Indiana Health Coverage Programs (IHCP) Prior Authorization department in these organizations. The UMO ID column is for use on the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) 278 transaction. If you submit a HIPAA 278 transaction, please use the correct UMO ID.
