Important Medicaid Therapy Authorization Update 📢

Effective November 1, 2026, Telligen will no longer accept extension requests or offer auto-authorization for physical therapy (PT), occupational therapy (OT) or speech therapy (ST).
Providers requesting continued services must submit a new case in Qualitrac using Prospective timing. The requested start date must be one calendar day after the current authorization ends to avoid overlapping dates of service. 📋

Please review the updated requirements and submission guidance to help prevent delays or incorrect case determinations.
