CT Scan or MRI in Your Future? High-Tech Scans Require Pre-Approval
Under the Aetna HSA and PPO medical plans, certain high-tech radiology tests, such as CT scans and MRIs, require prior authorization. Before you receive a high-technology test, your doctor's office will need to authorize the test with MedSolutions, Aetna's Radiology Benefits Management provider.
