To see if prior authorization or pre-service review is required, log in to our prior authorization tool for member-specific information. For general code information, use our code check tool.
You can enter a medical or dental service code.
1. Check a code
Note: This tool does not include non-specific or unlisted codes (general codes that do not describe specific services) unless they are associated with a specific medical policy. We review all non-specific and unlisted codes when the claim is submitted, regardless of whether they relate to a medical policy. The code check tool is not a guarantee of coverage as member contracts may differ in benefits.
The Federal Employee Program (FEP) has a separate code list and review requirements. View FEP prior authorization details.
Please make sure you're entering a valid, 5-character code. The code check tool does not accept modifiers.
