[quote=Anonymous]There seems to be an ongoing problem that some of the paperwork MDIPA sends out has the wrong fax number on it. You need to call, make sure you have a nice rep (many/most actually are), and have them find out what the right fax number is. I have no clue why this is an ongoing problem for them, but it is. MDIPA will backdate your coverage to the date your authorization request was submitted. i don't think they'll do it to before that. For IVF, your RE should submit the authorization request. You just need a referral to your RE from your PCP. When I first switched, I made the mistake of letting the financial people at my RE's office deal with MDIPA. With the exception of GW, I find the financial people at most RE's office will do the most minimal of follow up (i.e. keep faxing the same documentation over and over again without ever calling insurance company to find out why they haven't received it). It's annoying, but especially with the HMO coverage you need to pro-actively follow your case yourself.[/quote]
