Overview
This article explains post-submission options for a utilization plan. Use it to understand how notifications, review outcomes, update requests, and withdrawal availability may affect a plan after it has been submitted.
Before You Begin
Before withdrawing a utilization plan, confirm that:
- The plan has already been submitted.
- The organization has not reviewed or acted on the plan.
- The due date has not passed.
- You have enough time to make updates and resubmit the plan before the due date.
After the due date passes, or after the organization makes a decision on the plan, the plan can no longer be withdrawn.
Steps
After You Submit
After the plan is submitted, you may receive confirmation by email or fax, depending on the organization’s notification settings.
The organization will review the plan and take action. You will be notified when review is complete or if additional information is required.
If the organization requires updates, review the Utilization Plan Summary for instructions.
To learn more about plan statuses and what they mean, see Understanding Utilization Plan Statuses.
Withdraw a Submitted Plan
You may be able to withdraw a submitted plan if you need to make changes before the organization reviews it.
-
Open the submitted utilization plan.
For help locating your plan, see Accessing Your Utilization Plan as a Vendor.
- Review the Utilization Plan: View Plan page.
- Select Withdraw Utilization Plan.
- Confirm the withdrawal, if prompted.
- Make the needed updates to the plan.
- Resubmit the plan before the due date.
Withdrawing a plan does not change the due date. After the due date passes, or after the organization makes a decision on the plan, the plan can no longer be withdrawn.

Summary
After submission, a utilization plan moves into the organization’s review process. Notifications, plan statuses, and summary instructions help you understand the current review outcome and whether any follow-up action is needed. If changes are needed before review, withdrawal may be available, but the original due date still applies.
