9. Clinical Validity of Algorithms NIA currently reviews more than 450,000 advanced imaging requests each month. All algorithms and guidelines are reviewed and approved by The Health Plan Medical Directors. Many of our current algorithms recommend the substitution of more costly but more effective imaging technology. Our goal is to suggest the most clinically appropriate test early in an episode of care. Consultative communication is a hallmark of NIA – NIA has a team of 65 board-certified physicians representing radiology and a host of other specialties available for physician to physician discussions. NIA—A Magellan Health Company 9

10. NIA’s Authorization Process The ordering physician is responsible for obtaining prior authorization. The rendering provider must ensure that prior authorization has been obtained, and it is recommended that you not schedule procedures without prior authorization. Procedures performed without proper authorization will not be reimbursed and may not be billed to The Health Plan members. If the radiologist or rendering provider feels that, in addition to the study already authorized, an additional study is needed the radiologist or rendering provider should proceed with the additional study and contact NIA within 1 business day to initiate the medical necessity review process. If an urgent clinical situation exists outside of a hospital emergency room, the radiologist or rendering provider should proceed with the study and contact NIA the next business day to go through the normal review process. Separate prior authorization numbers are not needed for CT-guided biopsy and CT-guided radiation therapy. NIA—A Magellan Health Company 10
