Authorization Automation

Remove prior authorization work from your staff by relying on our automation and revenue cycle experts. Our solution handles authorization submissions and status checks, navigating complex auth processes, payer rules, and portals and ensuring tasks get done.

Authorization Advisor

Authorization Advisor is a new GenAI assistant that helps prior authorization specialists efficiently and comprehensively complete authorization submissions. It provides staff — from entry-level to veteran — with an interactive sidebar view of patient details and curated clinical documentation from the EHR, all directly in their workflow. In addition, it supports any payer portal or service line, and most EHRs.

How Authorization Advisor works

Authorization Advisor gives patient access staff superpowers. With this nimble tool, everything is right in their workflows so they can work both better and faster.

Authorization Advisor efficiently extracts and presents key information from the EHR. It connects to the EHR via a standards-based integration to access the data needed and supports additional data sources (like scanned docs). Then it presents those details in a convenient interactive sidebar on the payer portal.

Using our powerful GenAI technology, Authorization Advisor reviews relevant medical information and recommends documents to include in auth requests, along with evidence-based justifications. The technology then pulls those suggestions into the sidebar for the RCM team to evaluate.

The solution rapidly populates the patient details into the auth submission on the payer portal. It eliminates the need to toggle back and forth between screens — everything is right there. Staff then reviews Authorization Advisor's proposals for clinical documents in the sidebar, selecting and attaching the appropriate ones. Finally, they submit the auth, recording the response details in the EHR.

Our technology continuously learns from documents the prior auth specialists select and what answers they choose on the auth form. The AI uses all of this knowledge to improve how it operates and the suggestions it makes.

This product will help your team, patients, and processes by:

I’ve been using Authorization Advisor to submit auths and it’s spectacular. It does the heavy lifting of reviewing and presenting the documents I need to complete the auth. Plus, it brings patient information right to the payer portal, right into my workflow. No more jumping back and forth between the EHR and portal or worrying about screens freezing and losing all my work. Authorization Advisor has saved me so much time. I wish this tool existed years ago.

Authorization Automation

If you want to remove work from your staff's plate, AKASA Authorization Automation can help. Our Authorization Submission and Authorization Status products holistically address prior authorization with automation. Through our unique AI + experts-in-the-loop approach, AKASA determines if prior auth is required, gathers the necessary information, uses GenAI to intelligently review and attach clinical documentation, submits the auth request, checks on the status of those requests, and documents the results. This means more timely patient care and fewer staff frustrations.

How Authorization Automation works

We're automating the complex and time-consuming work of submitting authorizations and checking their status with AI-powered automation and our revenue cycle experts. Your staff can then focus on more critical tasks.

Our automation validates if an auth is required and then fills out the auth requests on payer portals — including supplemental diagnosis and procedure codes and required medical records. Unlike other tools, we leverage GenAI to review relevant medical information, finding clinical documents a human may miss and suggesting relevant ones. This workflow also determines if an auth is not required and documents that in the EHR. We ensure your auths are thorough and accurate in order to improve turnaround time.

Our technology obtains well-timed auth statuses for pending auth requests. It returns detailed information to drive follow-up workflows and documents the claim with approved, pending, or denied status and portal screenshots.
