Prior authorization, handled from request to resolution.

Insight Health's Prior Authorization AI Agent automates prior authorization, pre auth, and PA workflows across fax, payer portals, APIs, documents, and the EHR. It gathers the record, submits the request, tracks status, follows up, and keeps staff focused on cases that need clinical judgment.

ONE AGENT ACROSS EVERY PA CHANNEL

Move each authorization forward without adding another staff queue.

The agent coordinates the administrative work from the first request through approval, denial, or escalation. Staff can see what happened, what is pending, and what needs a human decision.

01

Determine

Confirm whether prior authorization is required for the payer, service, and plan.

02

Gather

Collect the diagnosis, history, notes, labs, imaging, and payer-specific documentation.

03

Submit

PRIOR AUTHORIZATION FAQ

Clear answers for practice leaders.

A practical view of how Prior Authorization AI fits existing teams, EHRs, and payer workflows.

What is a Prior Authorization AI Agent?

It is software that coordinates the administrative steps required to determine, prepare, submit, track, and follow up on a prior authorization request across the EHR and payer channels.

Are prior authorization, pre auth, and PA the same thing?

They are commonly used to describe the same payer approval workflow. Requirements vary by plan, service, medication, and site of care.

Does the AI replace clinical decision making?

No. The agent automates administrative work. Medical necessity, peer-to-peer review, and other clinical judgments remain with licensed clinicians.

Which payer channels can it use?

The workflow can coordinate supported APIs, portals, fax, and phone processes, then write status and next actions back to the practice workflow.

How does it work with the EHR?

Insight Health connects the authorization request to the patient record, gathers relevant documentation, routes tasks to the correct queue, and updates status as the case progresses.
