If you're new to Priority Health Medicaid and your provider or medication is not covered, Transition of Care may allow you to temporarily continue receiving care.
Members, their appointed representative, or providers may request Transition of Care authorizations. Transition of Care requests are meant to temporarily continue coverage of services for members within the first 90 days of eligibility whose health would be put at serious risk if they go without care.
With Transition of Care, you may be able to continue to receive services from health care providers who are not in your plan’s network. You must be established with the out-of-network provider, having seen them in the past 6 months.
