Greenway Health Medi-Cal Prior Authorization Automation

Klivira delivers comprehensive Greenway Health Medi-Cal prior authorization automation, directly addressing the complexities of California's Medicaid program for ambulatory practices.

For revenue cycle directors and prior authorization coordinators utilizing Greenway Health EMRs, navigating Medi-Cal's specific authorization requirements presents a significant operational challenge. Manual processes for California Medicaid patients lead to delays, increased administrative burden, and potential revenue impact. Klivira provides a targeted solution.

The Challenge of Medi-Cal Prior Authorizations from Greenway Health EMRs

Ambulatory practices using Greenway Health's Intergy or Prime Suite often face a fragmented workflow when seeking prior authorizations for Medi-Cal beneficiaries. This typically involves extracting patient and clinical data from the EMR, then manually transcribing it into the Medi-Cal provider portal, or managing X12 278 transactions. This manual data transfer is time-consuming and prone to transcription errors, directly impacting patient access to necessary care.

Seamless Integration with Greenway Health via Greenway Marketplace

Klivira integrates directly with your Greenway Health EMR environment through the Greenway Marketplace. This allows for the secure and efficient extraction of necessary patient demographics, clinical documentation, and order details from Intergy or Prime Suite. Our platform acts as an intelligent layer, pre-populating prior authorization requests and streamlining the submission process without requiring staff to leave their familiar EMR interface.

Targeted Automation for Medi-Cal Specific Workflows

Medi-Cal, as California's Medicaid program, has distinct prior authorization requirements across various service lines and drug classes. Klivira's automation platform is configured to navigate these specific rules, from advanced imaging requests (e.g., MRI, CT scans) to specialty drug authorizations, including biologics and GLP-1s, which often require detailed clinical justification. We support the electronic prior authorization (ePA) requirements and X12 278 submission standards relevant to Medi-Cal.
