Are you spending hours following up after submitting prior authorization requests?
While many practices struggle to keep up with growing volumes, their real challenge lies beyond.
Your staff might be spending hours on:
• Tracking authorization status
• Logging into payor portals
• Following up on missing documentation
• Entering data into spreadsheets and trackers
• Monitoring expiration of referrals
• Coordinating between clinical and scheduling teams
And when all this happens across disconnected processes, even a small delay impacts scheduling, revenue cycle, and at the end of the day, reimbursement.
For eClinicalWorks practices, optimizing prior authorization process begins with increased workflow visibility and better integration between referrals, documentation, authorization, and scheduling.
