Full text
The combined amount of time provided for the time frames prescribed by the utilization review and prior authorization procedures described by Sections 540.0301, 540.0303, and 540.0305 and the timeline for reconsidering an adverse determination on a prior authorization described by Section 540.0306 may not exceed the time frame for a decision under federally prescribed time frames. It is the intent of the legislature that these provisions allow sufficient time to provide necessary documentation and avoid unnecessary denials without delaying access to care.
