What’s included

Four things, tracked to a decision

A · Submission

Prior auths opened, submitted and followed up until they are approved or formally denied.

B · Documentation

Prescriber offices chased for the clinical documentation, so your staff are not on hold.

C · Renewals

Renewals tracked before they lapse, which is what turns an approved therapy into a rejected refill.

D · Specialty

Specialty and high-cost therapies handled as the slow, documented cases they are.

A day on your account

What actually happens

Intake

The benefit is checked and the requirement confirmed before anything is filed, so the case opens against the right plan and the right criteria.

Submission

The request goes in with the clinical documentation attached, chased from the prescriber office rather than requested and forgotten.

Renewal

Approved therapies are tracked toward their expiry and renewed ahead of it, which is what keeps a refill from rejecting at the counter.

Common questions

Before you ask

No. Chasing the clinical documentation is part of the work, which is the part that usually puts a technician on hold for an afternoon.

A formal denial is a decision, and it comes back to you with the reason and the appeal options rather than as a dead end.

They are tracked against their expiry date and opened before it, because an approved therapy that lapses rejects exactly like an unapproved one.

They are handled as the slow, documented cases they are, with the paperwork assembled up front rather than chased after a rejection.
