Integrating with diverse EMR systems, including the Veradigm (Allscripts) portfolio, demands a robust and precise automation strategy to ensure compliance and efficiency.

The Operational Challenge: Veradigm (Allscripts) and New York Medicaid PAs

Providers using Veradigm (Allscripts) EMRs—including TouchWorks EHR, Professional EHR, and Sunrise—often encounter manual, fragmented workflows when seeking prior authorizations from New York Medicaid. This complexity is compounded by the need to navigate various Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) within the NY Medicaid program, each potentially having distinct submission requirements and medical policies. Klivira addresses this by providing a unified platform to manage these diverse demands, reducing administrative burden.

Klivira's Integration with Veradigm (Allscripts) EMRs

Our platform utilizes FHIR R4 APIs, supporting US Core resources such as Patient, Encounter, Coverage, and ServiceRequest, to pull necessary clinical data directly from TouchWorks EHR, Professional EHR, or Sunrise. This ensures that prior authorization requests are populated with accurate, real-time patient information, minimizing data entry and errors.

Navigating New York Medicaid Prior Authorization Requirements

New York Medicaid prior authorization often involves specific state-level guidelines and coordination with various MCOs. Klivira's platform is engineered to adapt to these nuances, connecting to payer portals and ePA channels to facilitate submission.
