Enhancing Prior Authorization with Automation and AI-Powered Insights

Reimagining Prior Authorization as a Catalyst for Change

The regulatory landscape is evolving, with prior authorization positioned as one of many areas ripe for innovation. At CoverMyMeds, we see a bigger opportunity: to redefine electronic prior authorization as a force for progress.

We’re building a prior auth experience that moves at the speed of need. By combining integrated EHR workflows with FHIR standards, we’re introducing automation that can enable real-time data exchange, simplify submissions and route requests intelligently to help eliminate unnecessary steps. This evolution creates a more connected experience that helps reduce friction, accelerate access and safeguard accuracy at scale:

• For providers, streamlined workflows mean less administrative workload and more time with patients.
• For health systems, faster determinations help reduce delays and improve care continuity.
• For biopharma, timely access helps therapies reach the patients who need them, supporting better outcomes and adherence.
• For payers, cleaner prior authorization requests enable faster, more accurate determinations and improve operational efficiency.

Prior authorization should never stand in the way of care. By connecting our stakeholders through intelligent automation and actionable insights, we create a more collaborative, responsive ecosystem that benefits everyone involved.

Driving Prior Authorization Innovation Through AI

Today, we’re already advancing this vision through a strategic partnership with Latent Health. Their AI-driven technology complements CoverMyMeds’ proven automation for straightforward prior authorization requests, enhancing the intelligence and adaptability of our solutions. Backed by a network that includes 350+ electronic health record systems, 50,000+ pharmacies, 950,000 providers, and all major health plans and PBMs, CoverMyMeds provides comprehensive connectivity across the healthcare ecosystem. Together, we’re making prior authorization submissions smarter, faster and more patient-centric.

Unlike traditional prior authorization solutions that simply route requests, our collaborated experience creates a smarter, more connected process that accelerates decisions without sacrificing accuracy. Rather than simply transmitting data, we help interpret it and deliver suggested responses to prior authorization questions in real time.

The expected impact is clear: fewer manual steps, fewer errors, and, ultimately, faster determinations. The enhanced capabilities are designed to analyze both structured and unstructured EHR data with speed and precision. This will help eliminate the need to toggle between systems or search through clinical notes, creating a more seamless experience that helps providers and their care teams initiate and complete prior authorization more efficiently within their existing workflow.

Early adopters of our combined solution have seen measurable impact: reductions in denials, improved submission quality, and significant time savings for care teams.

And this is only the beginning. What we’ve achieved so far is laying the groundwork for even greater transformation ahead.

Looking Ahead

Healthcare is at a turning point. Prior authorization reform is gaining momentum, and technology will be the catalyst that truly changes the experience for providers and patients alike. By integrating automation and AI responsibly, now and into the future, we’re helping care teams overcome one of healthcare’s most persistent administrative challenges and transforming prior authorization into a faster, more intelligent process that far exceeds the limits of traditional approaches.
