Scope at case level
Confirm the furnishing location, setting, beneficiary program, selected service/code, date, and exceptions for each case—even when centralized teams prepare it.

CMS WISeR in Texas
For distributed Texas organizations, scope each site and service rather than applying one blanket workflow.
Current CMS publications and assigned participant instructions are authoritative. WISeRly is independent, not CMS-affiliated or endorsed, not an official WISeR participant, does not issue determinations, and does not guarantee authorization or payment.
Controls for multi-site organizations
Version instructions
Maintain a controlled copy or link to current official materials. Retire stale internal job aids and show the source retrieval date.
Separate roles
Define who prepares evidence, who validates clinical accuracy, who transmits through the authorized channel, and who owns official notices.
Avoid common routing assumptions
Do not assume all Medicare services, all locations, all settings, or all dates are included. Do not treat an earlier outcome as a standing authorization. Do not infer payment from an affirmation. Confirm the current official rule and exact notice.
Enhanced technology and AI-assisted review can support analysis, but human clinical determinations are distinct. WISeRly produces no official clinical, coverage, authorization, or payment decision.
Official source check
Public WISeRly tools accept synthetic examples only. Do not enter PHI, patient records, claim information, or identifiers.
