Job description

Scope: The Medical Review Specialist is a Registered Nurse who conducts the Utilization Review process by obtaining medical information and confirming the medical necessity of hospital admissions and/or outpatient procedures. The Medical Review Specialist will perform her/his duties in accordance with MedWatch procedures outlined below, MedWatch review standards, URAC standards and state certification requirements and federal guidelines.

Duties and Responsibilities:
  • The Medical Review Specialist will identify her/himself by first name, title, and organization name when a call is made to or received from a facility, provider or patient. Upon request, the patient, facility, provider or other health care professionals are informed of specific utilization management requirements or procedures.
  • Perform preadmission review for medical necessity of hospitalization and surgery.

MedWatch does not routinely require hospitals, physicians, and providers to numerically code diagnoses or procedures to be considered for certification, but may request such codes if available. If the Medical Review Specialist is unable to certify the requested outpatient procedure with the information provided telephonically, she will request the provider office notes pertaining to this procedure and fax them to the Physician Advisor for review and determination. MedWatch shares all clinical and demographic information on individual patients among our clerical and case management departments that have a need to know, to avoid duplicate request for information from enrollees or providers.

MedWatch collects only the information necessary to certify the admission, procedure or treatment, length of stay, or frequency or duration of services. MedWatch does not routinely request copies of all medical records on all patients reviewed. Only the sections of the medical record necessary in that specific case to certify medical necessity or appropriateness of the admission or extension of stay, frequency or duration of service, or length of anticipated inability to return to work are requested.
  • Refer cases to Physician Advisors when procedures or hospital stays cannot be certified and certification must be pended.
  • Send referral forms to TPA/Payer for discharge planning, catastrophic illnesses and long-term cases to Case Management. Notify claims office and re-insurer.

  • Perform data entry and reporting requirements.
  • Perform Retrospective Review when requested or when medical information cannot be obtained prior to or during confinement or treatment. MedWatch issues a determination within 15 days of a request for a utilization management determination. For retrospective review, the organization bases review determinations solely on the medical information available at the time the medical care was provided.
  • Verify and document the name and department of the personnel performing utilization review by telephone.
  • Forward all verbal or written complaints concerning utilization review to the Supervisor for disposition. Disposition may be a written or a verbal contact to attempt to resolve the complaint issue. Documentation of written/verbal contacts should be maintained in the case record and employee file if appropriate.
  • Provide all concerned parties with a copy of the certification or denial determination. The copy shall be sent the same day as determination.
  • Prioritize incoming calls by admission type and/or review type in order to facilitate timely processing.
