Workflow
Insurance companies and prior authorization services call interventional pain clinics daily. These calls are often missed, misrouted, or result in incomplete notes. AI reception captures authorization details and routes them to billing with full context.
Insurance authorization calls come in during the day and after hours. The AI answers, captures the authorization status and reference number, and routes it to billing with full caller details. No more lost pre-auths or follow-up confusion.
If a patient's procedure is scheduled but the pre-auth is pending, the AI flags this in your PM system and alerts billing. Your team can follow up proactively before the procedure date.
Instead of listening to recorded voicemail, your billing team receives a summary: insurance company, authorization number, procedure code, effective date, authorization limits. They can act immediately.
If an authorization is denied or conditional, the AI captures the reason and routes it to your clinical team for peer-to-peer review. All communication is documented for the appeal.
The AI logs all authorization requests and statuses in your PM system. Your staff can check authorization history before re-requesting, saving time and reducing patient frustration.
