How do I file a complaint or appeal?
In-network providers
- When you use an in-network provider, they will submit the claim directly to Magellan on your behalf.
- If you receive a Magellan referral, your provider will complete and submit the appropriate claim form to be reimbursed for your care.
- You do not need to submit a claim or call for outpatient authorization.
Out-of-network providers
- Out-of-network providers are not required to process and submit your claims.
