Auto-Placement by Service Code

This feature is enabled and managed by Payers (MCOs) and available to Members of a participating Payer network. To determine eligibility, the Member’s Medicaid ID and/or the First Name, Last Name, and DOB must match the Payer system.

The Auto-Placement by Service Code feature allows Providers to schedule and bill for services that do not require prior Payer authorization. When this feature is enabled by the Payer, the Allow Auto Placement checkbox field displays selected in the Contract Service Code window under Admin > Reference Table Management > Contract Service Code as read-only.

Contract Service Code: Auto Placement Field

Payers provide a list of eligible Service Codes that can be used to perform an Auto Placement. Once the Service Code is created and synced from the Payer system, Providers can create a new contract for a Patient.
