Pain and joint management, interventional Interventional pain management is a medical subspecialty that treats pain with invasive interventions like injections, spinal cord stimulations, and implantable drug delivery systems. The purpose of interventional pain management is to help members have less pain, so they can return to normal activities, when possible. Preauthorization is required for interventional pain and joint management, such as: • Epidural injections • Radiofrequency ablations • Facet blocks • Sacroiliac joint injections • Pain pumps Preauthorization is not required for post-procedural pain management in an inpatient setting, including, but not limited to, treating acute pain due to trauma, acute post-thoracotomy pain, and acute postoperative pain. Prescription drugs See the “Your prescription drug benefit” section. Preventive care ALERT! This benefit covers only services that meet the requirements below. If you receive services during a preventive care visit that do not meet these requirements, or your provider bills your visit as medical treatment instead of a preventive service, the services are not covered as preventive. Instead, when medically necessary, they are covered under the standard rate. 66 2024 UMP Plus–UW Medicine ACN (PEBB) Certificate of Coverage
