Effective for dates of service (DOS) on or after Sept. 8, 2021, and until further notice, the Indiana Health Coverage Programs (IHCP) is reinstating temporary changes in the skilled nursing facility (SNF) prior authorization (PA) requirements for Medicaid managed care health plans. This change is in response to the recent increase of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases and hospitalizations across the state of Indiana.
