Medical Necessity and Preventive Services Sample Clauses

Medical Necessity and Preventive Services. The Ohio Med Plan pays only for those covered services, supplies, and hospital admissions which are medically necessary or are preventive services covered under the plan. Ohio Med PPO Hospitals and PPO providers are responsible for insuring that services, supplies, and admissions are medically necessary or preventive as defined by the Plan. The fact that a non-PPO physician may prescribe, order, recommend, guarantee, or approve a service, supply, or admission does not guarantee medical necessity or make such charges an allowable expense, even though they are not specifically listed as exclusions.
