Solution

The question is asking which of the given examples does not correctly match the tool used by intermediaries (such as insurance companies) with its use.

  1. Case management - This is correctly paired. Case management involves coordinating services for a patient, which can include ensuring appropriate follow-up care after a hospital stay.

  2. Utilization review - This is also correctly paired. Utilization review involves evaluating the necessity, appropriateness, and efficiency of healthcare services, which can include asking for a second opinion before approving a surgery.

  3. Tiered formulary - This is correctly paired as well. A tiered formulary is a list of medications covered by an insurance plan, which are divided into tiers based on cost. The lower tiers usually include generic drugs and require smaller copayments.

  4. Pre-admission review - This is incorrectly paired. Pre-admission review involves reviewing the necessity of a hospital admission before it occurs, not after surgery. Therefore, the insurance company would not require approval for a hospital stay following surgery, but rather before the surgery and subsequent hospital stay.
