Streamlining Office Ally Jardiance Prior Authorization Workflows
Klivira integrates with Office Ally to automate the complex Office Ally Jardiance prior authorization process, significantly reducing administrative burden for small ambulatory practices and improving patient access.
Revenue cycle directors and prior authorization coordinators at clinics utilizing Office Ally face unique challenges when managing prior authorizations for high-cost medications like Jardiance. The need for precise documentation and efficient submission within Office Ally's ecosystem is critical to maintaining patient access to essential therapies and ensuring revenue integrity. Klivira addresses these challenges by optimizing the PA workflow specifically for Office Ally users prescribing empagliflozin.
Navigating Jardiance Prior Authorization within Office Ally
When a provider in an Office Ally-powered practice prescribes Jardiance, the order entry initiates a PA requirement. Office Ally, primarily serving small ambulatory practices, often routes these requests through its clearinghouse or relies on manual processes. Klivira intercepts this workflow, leveraging Office Ally APIs to identify the need for a Jardiance prior authorization and initiate the automated process without requiring staff to leave the EMR.
Klivira's Data Extraction for Jardiance PAs from Office Ally
Successful Jardiance prior authorizations require comprehensive clinical documentation. Klivira intelligently pulls necessary data points directly from Office Ally's EHR, including the patient's problem list, medication history, and relevant lab results. This extraction process ensures all payer-specific criteria, such as confirmed type 2 diabetes, heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, or chronic kidney disease diagnoses, are accurately captured to support the X12 278 or NCPDP SCRIPT ePA submission.
Key Data Points Klivira Extracts from Office Ally for Jardiance:
- Diagnosis codes (e.g., ICD-10 for T2D, HF, CKD) from the problem list.
- Medication history to confirm prior therapy (e.g., metformin trial/failure).
- Relevant lab values (e.g., A1c, eGFR, BNP) from flowsheets.
- Provider notes detailing clinical rationale and patient intolerance/contraindications.
- Demographic and insurance information for accurate submission.
Pharmacy vs. Medical Benefit Considerations for SGLT2 Inhibitors
Jardiance (empagliflozin), as an oral medication, is predominantly covered under the pharmacy benefit. Klivira's platform is designed to distinguish between pharmacy and medical benefit drugs, ensuring Jardiance PAs are routed correctly as ePA submissions via NCPDP SCRIPT or Da Vinci PAS. This precision prevents delays often caused by miscategorization, a common challenge for practices managing diverse medication types through Office Ally's clearinghouse functionalities.
Automating Step Therapy Compliance for Jardiance in Office Ally
Many payers require step therapy, such as a trial of metformin, before approving Jardiance. Klivira's integration with Office Ally allows the system to automatically review the patient's medication history and problem list within the EMR. This enables the platform to identify if step therapy requirements have been met or if a documented contraindication or intolerance exists, preparing the PA request with the necessary evidence for a higher approval rate.
Seamless ePA Submission and Status Updates for Office Ally Users
Once all required data is compiled from Office Ally, Klivira facilitates the rapid submission of the Jardiance prior authorization request to the payer. Leveraging established ePA standards, Klivira monitors the status of the PA, providing real-time updates directly within the Klivira dashboard. This eliminates the need for manual follow-ups, allowing Office Ally users to focus on patient care rather than administrative tracking.
