Prior authorization software helps healthcare providers and insurance companies manage the medical care authorization process. Insurance companies often require healthcare providers to obtain preapproval for certain procedures, tests, or medications. This process ensures that the care plan is evaluated for medical necessity and cost implications before authorization is granted. If a provider fails to obtain prior authorization, the insurer will not cover the treatment, and the patient may be responsible for the costs. Typically, the healthcare provider initiates the prior authorization process by submitting a request to the patient's insurance provider. This determines whether prior approval is needed for a specific procedure and ensures the appropriate paperwork is submitted to the insurer for review and approval. Since obtaining prior authorization can be an administrative burden, this software helps streamline and automate the process. Prior authorization software integrates with EHR systems or patient relationship management (PRM) software to automatically check if prior approval is required, electronically submit the authorization request to the insurance company, and monitor the status of the submission. It can also be combined with patient intake and revenue cycle management software to further optimize the process.
