Section 65 Behavioral Health Clarification of Authorization Requests for MAT/Suboxone & Medication Management
We recommend that providers use the +3-location identifier on authorization requests to Acentra for medication management services. Providers can specify the NPI+3 location in the servicing provider section of Acentra. This will help identify that the service location is licensed appropriately to provide Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)/Suboxone, or Medication Management.
The module/site list you received from the Department of Licensing will list the appropriate address location where services are administered and the services you are approved to provide:
- Substance Abuse Agency License – MAT/Suboxone
- Mental Health Agency License -- Medication Management
If you have any questions, please contact Pam Grotton, Provider Relations Specialist.
