Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) involves exposing the body to oxygen under pressure greater than one atmosphere. Such therapy is performed in specially constructed hyperbaric chambers holding one or more patients, although, oxygen may be administered in addition to the hyperbaric treatment itself. Patients should be assessed for contraindications such as sinus disease or claustrophobia prior to therapy. In some diagnoses, hyperbarics is only an adjunct to standard surgical therapy. These indications are taken from "The Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Committee Report" (2003) of The Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society (Kensington, MD).
HBOT prior authorizations will be issued by Arkansas Foundation for Medical Care (AFMC) for all requests received on and after October 1, 2009. All hyperbaric oxygen therapy will require prior authorization, except in emergency cases such as for air embolism or carbon monoxide poisoning, in which post-authorization will be allowed per protocol. See section 242.000. Prior authorization will be issued for a specific number of treatments. Subsequent treatments will require a telephone review and an additional prior authorization. All prior authorizations for HBOT are completed by telephone review.
In order to request a prior authorization for HBOT, the provider must call the AFMC prior authorization number, (800) 426-2234. The caller must be able to provide demographic and clinical information to support the medical necessity of treatment. Calls for prior authorization should be placed by a staff member who can answer questions pertaining to the patient's clinical condition. Providers should gather all necessary information prior to placing a call. All information that is submitted to acquire the prior authorization must be documented in the beneficiary's medical record. The following information is required for prior authorization:
Refer to Section 242.000, 244.000, 252.119 and 272.404 for additional information on prior authorizations, reimbursement, and information on billing.
NOTE: When approved, only one authorization number will be issued. The prior authorization number and the number of approved HBOT treatments must be communicated to the physician provider so that both the facility and physician may claim reimbursement for the number of approved HBOT sessions. Additionally, if more HBOT sessions are required for the same beneficiary, a new prior authorization will be required and the above process followed to acquire any subsequent prior authorizations. A new prior authorization number will be assigned for any additional sessions approved. The prior authorization information between the facility and the physician is to be reciprocal if the physician acquires the prior authorization.
