New enhancements
Site of Service - To allow for a more data-driven and patient-specific approach to determining the appropriate setting of a service, InterQual Acute Adult Criteria, InterQual Acute Pediatric Criteria, InterQual Behavioral Health Services Criteria, and InterQual Procedures Criteria will be updated to include a benchmark setting provided at the CPT® code level. The setting, based on the selection of a CPT code, will appear in the InterQual Review Summary to support clear communication of both the medical review and setting outcomes, and to allow for improved organizational workflow. To support this enhancement, the following resources are included on the InterQual Resource Center, What’s New, InterQual Content:
• InterQual® 2025 Site of Service Early Look video
• InterQual® 2025 Setting by CPT code pre-release summary

InterQual Cloud Solutions updates
If your organization has configured your environment to disable new criteria releases by default, you will need to log in to the Administration module and enable the criteria when you are ready to start using it.
