Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Predetermination is the process of determining the amount of money that a third-party payer will pay for a procedure before the procedure is performed. This is done by submitting a request for predetermination to the payer, which reviews the request and determines the amount of coverage. Preauthorization, copayment, precertification, and deductible are all different aspects of insurance coverage but do not directly relate to the determination of payment for a specific procedure.
