Effective May 1, 2018, the pre-certification service previously offered by RADCON Pre-Cert Solutions will now be operated by Atlantic Medical Imaging. The service will cover pre-authorization requests for computed tomography (CT), computed tomography angiography (CTA), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and nuclear medicine studies. The pre-authorization service will be free of charge and made available on an equal basis to all patients and referring physicians using Atlantic Medical Imaging’s services.
Our authorization specialists will work on your request, coordinate all requirements with the insurance companies, complete all follow-up and send results immediately back to you. We will also schedule your patients at an Atlantic Medical Imaging location that is convenient for them.
Our goal is to provide high-quality insurance authorization services, while reducing the time consuming administrative work involved in obtaining insurance authorizations for your patients.
