I’ve recently tried obtaining auth from Carelon, and they denied it due to the services being provided in MN, and stated the auth must come from the local. I then requested auth from the local BCBS and also got denied. I’m now just planning
on appealing the claims if denied, as I’m not sure how else to proceed.

party contractor for claims and auths?..... Been jumping through hoops with them today.
