Summary
Oregon Health Authority requires mandatory training for all staff who request Behavior Rehabilitation Services (BRS) prior authorizations, with new PA processes effective June 1, 2024. Services rendered without prior authorization will not be paid by OHA.
Action Required
Before June 1, 2024: All staff who request BRS authorizations must register and attend one of the required training sessions (5/21, 5/22, 5/28, 5/30, or 5/31). Update workflows to ensure all BRS services have prior authorization before rendering services. Failure to obtain prior authorization will result in claim denials and no reimbursement from OHA.
