New Medicare Advantage Prior Authorization and Referral Tool

  • September 1, 2022

    If you provide care to Premera Blue Cross Medicare Advantage patients, you’ll soon have a new prior authorization and referral tool called Symphony.

    Symphony will help streamline your workflows by improving the prior authorization and referral online submission process.

    • No more checking codes from a separate list. Code checks will be part of the submission process. When you enter a procedure code, the system will tell you if a prior authorization is required or not.
    • No duplicate entries. When you enter a request, Symphony will tell you if there’s a similar request in the system before you submit to help prevent duplicates.
    • No change to your sign-in process. You’ll access the tool through OneHealthPort the same way you do today.

    Symphony Training

    More information about Symphony as well as user guides, and recorded demos will be available soon. Watch for more information and training materials in the October 6 issue of Provider News.
