Blue Cross Requires Authorization for MAC GI Cases
Effective with dates of service January 1, 2019 Blue Cross is requiring a Prior Authorization for MAC Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Procedures.
It is extremely important that anesthesiologists either receive a copy of the authorization indicating their services were authorized prior to the procedure or that they have their patients sign the Blue Cross waiver stating they will pay for the service.
