Medicaid typically does not require prior authorization (PA) for services or procedures that are billed as secondary to another payer. However, specific requirements can vary by state and the type of service being provided. It's essential to check the state's Medicaid guidelines and the primary insurer's policies for any nuances in coverage or authorization requirements. Always consult with the Medicaid provider manual or a billing specialist for accurate information.
