Some in-network medical services are only covered if your doctor or other network provider gets approval in advance. Your primary care physician or specialist may obtain prior authorization for you by calling 1-800-664-2583 (TTY 711).
You can sign in to see what services require prior authorization.
Approval is not a guarantee of payment. The benefits of your policy at the time of service are still applied, including in-network vs. out-of-network benefits, exclusions, limitations, copayments, deductibles and/or coinsurance. A service or treatment may be medically necessary but not covered under your specific health benefits plan.

Prior authorization is the written approval from Horizon, prior to the date of service, for a doctor or other health care professional or facility to provide specific services or supplies. It is sometimes called pre-authorization, prior approval or pre-certification. Your Horizon plan may require prior authorization for certain services before you receive them, except in an emergency. Prior authorization isn’t a promise your health insurance or plan will cover the cost. Your participating doctor will work with Horizon to obtain prior authorization.

September and October are generally good times to be vaccinated against flu, before it begins spreading.
It’s important to get a flu shot as soon as it becomes available, so that the vaccine is most effective and protects you throughout the flu season. While the flu can spread year-round, most of the time flu activity peaks between December and February, but activity can last as late as May.
Visit the CDC website for more information about preventing seasonal flu.
