Points of Light 2023 Case Study 24
Simplifying the Prior Authorization Process through Automation
Manual prior authorization workflows are time consuming and costly for payer and provider organizations and can delay patient access to care. To increase provider visibility into which services require prior authorization and to bring automation to the submission and decision processes, the collaborators in this case study worked together to develop a more automated, self-service solution that allows providers to determine whether a given service requires prior authorization, submit a request, and receive a determination, all within their EMR workflow. The technology has improved efficiency, reduced denials, and increased revenue.
