The following table provides the Prior Authorization (PA) address for each of the Care Management Organizations (CMO) as well as the Traditional Medicaid fee for service vendor address for submission of PA request, PA updates and PA attachments. Please note, that PA requests for carved out Risk Based Managed Care (RBMC) services, Medicaid Select, Hospice, and Traditional Medicaid members as well as any other PA requests for services outside of RBMC and Care Select should be submitted to the Fee For Service address noted below 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 that is available to the provider community in the Indiana Health Coverage Program (IHCP) monthly newsletter also contains PA document submission addresses. The information in the table below supersedes any addresses listed in the Quick Reference Guide and should be utilized to ensure accurate mailings of PA information to the IHCP Prior Authorization department within these organizations. The UMO ID column is for use on the HIPAA 278 transaction. If you submit a HIPAA 278 transaction please use the correct UMO ID.
