Integrated workflows ease staff burden and satisfy regulatory mandates.
Electronic Prior Authorization
ONE WORKFLOW, ENHANCED BY AI
Combine pharmacy and medical PAs, including complex orders and medications, into a single integrated workflow that keeps providers in the EHR and patients on track with therapy.

WE UNDERSTAND YOUR CHALLENGES
Prior Authorization Bottlenecks Slow Patient Care
Time-consuming manual processes, frequent errors, delays in patient care … sound familiar? Clinicians often struggle to get payer approval for medications because of complex, plan-specific requirements and rework due to missing information. These inefficiencies reduce productivity, increase denial rates, and delay treatments, impacting both patient outcomes and your revenue.
WE HAVE YOUR SOLUTION
Intelligent ePA Designed to Reduce Friction and Get Patients on Therapy Faster
We put prior authorization intelligence directly into the workflow, either as part of your e-prescribing solution from DrFirst or an API integration. This AI-enhanced solution pre-populates answers to payer questions and gives providers one place to manage coverage for complex orders, procedures, and medications. This streamlines the ePA process from start to finish, reducing manual work and the back-and-forth—so patients can start therapy and get procedures done sooner.
