Prior Authorization Assistant

AI completes prior auth forms using EHR data

Prior Auth Paperwork Is a Revenue-Killing Time Sink

Staff spend 2+ hours per prior authorization hunting through EHRs for diagnosis codes, medication histories, and clinical notes. Insurance companies require different forms for each drug/procedure, and missing documentation causes denials. Practices submit 40-80 prior auths weekly, costing $25-40K annually in staff time. Delayed approvals postpone treatments and frustrate patients.
