Utilization Review

INSTRUCTIONS:

Utilization management and review is a process to determine if health care services are being used appropriately on a patient. Often, this process is completed by a group, in-house, that may not have the hands-on patient experience or clinical knowledge that physicians have. The result of the review may provide unrealistic expectations for the clinician.
