Florida Health Care Plans Utilization Management Program encompasses the evaluation and determination of coverage for, and appropriateness of medical care services, behavioral health services and individual plan coverage benefits, as well as providing assistance to clinicians and members ensuring appropriate use of resources.

All pre-service and prior authorization requests are managed by the Central Referrals Department. Care during a hospitalization, Skilled Nursing Facility and Home Health Care are overseen by the Case Management Utilization Review Department. Member complaints, appeals and grievances are handled by the Member Services Department. All are reviewed, along with all pertinent documentation for approval or denial based on evidence based medical necessity criteria. FHCP uses MCG (Milliman) CareGuide, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid guidelines, and internally developed guidelines to assure the consistency with which medical necessity decisions are made.

Florida KidCare is the State of Florida’s children’s health insurance program for uninsured children who meet income and eligibility requirements. The 1998 Legislature created Florida KidCare in response to the passage of Title XXI of the Social Security Act in 1997. Florida KidCare provides health insurance to children in families with incomes up to 200 percent of the federal poverty level. Three state agencies and the Florida Healthy Kids Corporation, a non-profit organization, form the Florida KidCare partnership. MediKids, Florida Healthy Kids and Title XXI Children’s Medical Services Managed Care Plan compose the Title XXI Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). CHIP is not an entitlement program and the families pay a monthly family premium of $15 or $20 depending on the family’s income. Florida KidCare also includes Medicaid for children.
