1. What Medical Records Are Needed for Prior Authorizations in Dallas?

What this video covers

This video lists the medical records Dallas practices should gather before submitting a prior authorization: clinical notes, test results, treatment history, and payer-specific forms. It is for front office staff, referral coordinators, and practice managers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area who want fewer pended requests and faster payer decisions.

• Start with the order. Every request needs the signed provider order plus a diagnosis code that matches the payer's medical necessity criteria exactly.
• Document failed treatments. Step therapy rules mean payers want proof of what was tried first, including dates, dosages, and clinical outcomes.
• Match payer checklists. Texas Medicaid, Medicare Advantage, and commercial plans each require different forms, so pull the current plan-specific list every time.
• Submit complete packets. Requests missing one lab result or office note get pended, adding days or weeks compared with a complete first submission.
