Horizon NJ Health utilizes National Imaging Associates, Inc. (NIA) for the management of outpatient imaging services. NIA offers an online tool, RadMD, which provides registered users with instant access to high-tech imaging prior authorization information.

Horizon NJ Health’s physicians and health care professionals can use RadMD to submit all requests for authorizations online or you have the option to call NIA at 1-800-642-7299 to request authorizations for your patients’ exams. NIA’s Conciergo Facility Scheduling Program works with providers and their patients to select and schedule approved advanced imaging services.
