Faxing a hyperbaric prior-authorization from Hyperbaric & Wound Care Services

Because hyperbaric oxygen is a covered benefit only for specific indications, Hyperbaric & Wound Care Services faxes the prior-authorization documentation — diagnosis, Wagner grade, and conservative-care record — to the insurer before treatment begins. A transcutaneous-oximetry result and clear wound photos support the medical-necessity determination. Confirm the receiving fax — the payer's authorization team or the referring physician — with Hyperbaric & Wound Care Services before you send.

Confirm whether the referral goes to intake, the referral coordinator, or the front desk before you send. Confirm the referral-intake fax with Hyperbaric & Wound Care Services before you send.
