Points of Light 2024 Case Study 16
Using FHIR Standards to Streamline Prior Authorization Management & Improve Patient Care
The manual nature of prior authorizations creates an administrative burden for provider and payer organizations and delays patient access to care. The stakeholders in this collaboration worked to automate the prior authorization process by using Availity to connect the payer and provider solutions, allowing data to be exchanged more seamlessly. This project led to a faster turnaround time for prior authorization approvals, a reduced administrative burden, and improved access to care for patients.
