Medical Policy Selection

Highmark’s medical policy guidelines address both clinical and claim payment reimbursement issues. These guidelines address hundreds of medical issues, including diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, injectable drugs, and durable medical equipment. Some policies address procedures and services that are considered to be part of another procedure or service and, as such, are not separately payable. Many of these clinical and reimbursement guidelines are automated in our claims processing system.

You may search for topics by Keyword, Procedure Code or Policy Bulletin Number.
