Veradigm (Allscripts) Priority Health Prior Authorization Automation

Klivira delivers intelligent Veradigm (Allscripts) Priority Health prior authorization automation, directly addressing the complexities of securing approvals for Michigan-based members.

Revenue cycle directors and prior authorization coordinators face significant operational overhead navigating the varied requirements of payers like Priority Health from within Veradigm EMRs. This page outlines how Klivira's platform optimizes this critical workflow, enhancing efficiency and reducing administrative burden.

The Challenge: Prior Authorizations from Veradigm EMRs to Priority Health

Submitting prior authorizations for Priority Health members often requires navigating disparate payer portals and manual data entry, a process exacerbated when originating from diverse Veradigm (Allscripts) EMR environments such as TouchWorks EHR, Professional EHR, or Sunrise. This fragmented workflow introduces delays, increases denial rates, and diverts clinical staff from patient care, particularly for a regional insurer like Priority Health in Michigan.

Klivira's Integration with Veradigm (Allscripts) EMRs

Klivira integrates directly with Veradigm's portfolio of EMRs, leveraging the Veradigm Developer Program and FHIR R4 APIs. This enables seamless extraction of patient demographics, clinical documentation, and order details from systems like TouchWorks EHR and Professional EHR via SMART App Launch. While write-back capabilities for resources like DocumentReference and Task are more constrained, Klivira is designed to optimize the data flow for prior authorization packet assembly.

Streamlining Prior Authorizations to Priority Health

Klivira connects to Priority Health through various ePA channels and automates submissions, reducing the need for manual portal interactions. By standardizing the data extracted from Veradigm EMRs and structuring it to meet Priority Health's specific requirements, Klivira accelerates the submission process for this Michigan-based payer. This targeted approach helps minimize common errors that lead to delays or denials.

Optimizing Workflows Across Key Service Lines

For ambulatory clinics and small hospitals utilizing Veradigm EMRs, Klivira focuses on high-volume, high-cost prior authorization scenarios. This includes advanced imaging, specialty medications, and specific surgical procedures that frequently require pre-service approval from Priority Health. By automating the evidence collection and submission, Klivira ensures that the necessary clinical context is consistently provided, improving the likelihood of timely approvals.
