Points of Light 2023 Case Study 9
Speeding Up Prior Authorization Workflows Using Automated Communication
Submitting and following up on requests for prior authorization is often a manual, time-consuming process, creating administrative burden for both payer and provider organizations and potentially delaying needed care for patients. The stakeholders in this collaboration worked to streamline the process by automating the submission and follow-up for authorization requests, enabling providers to complete these tasks from within their EMR workflow. Results include faster turnaround times, reduced administrative workload, and fewer denials.
