Kansas providers: Benefit summary language updates Jan. 1

December 2025

 

We made updates to the benefit summary for Kansas to provide clarification on medically necessary medical and material services. Benefit coverage will remain unchanged.

 

All reviews will be performed through the claims process and a valid medical diagnosis is required for payment of any claims that are filed. The standards for diagnostic codes will be included in all medical procedure policies and readily available in our Provider Reference Guide.

 

You can still appeal claims and request clinical review of any contested claims. Our Peer Review Committee will review these requests to determine if they meet the requirements for medical necessity guidelines.
