HealthNautica’s eORders™, software is a comprehensive, easy-to-use, cloud solution for managing the entire perioperative process and surgical scheduling without changing your scheduling system. It begins with the physician’s office filling out an online surgery scheduling or procedure request.

Gone are the days of illegible, incomplete, inaccurate faxes sent back and forth between the physician’s office and the facility’s scheduling department. The cumbersome and error prone faxing process is replaced by an electronic form that is configured to each facility’s exact specifications and reacts to the user’s input thereby assisting the physician’s office in getting it right the first time.

All orders are legible, complete, screened for CMS Medical Necessity, incorporate SCIP, VTE, SSI and ACS NSQIP measures, verified for insurance eligibility, pre-certified and satisfy edits by CMS, commercial payers and the facility. Our solution ensures efficient surgery center scheduling and block time management while streamlining processes such as prior authorization.

A Buyer's Guide to

Prior Authorization

Prior authorization is a management process by which health care providers obtain approval from payers before delivering specific services in order to prevent lost revenue and reduce expenses.

What is prior authorization?

Prior authorization-sometimes called precertification or prior approval-is a management process by which health care providers obtain approval from payers before delivering specific services in order to prevent lost revenue and reduce expenses. When patients seek prior authorization-typically for more complex or costly treatments or prescriptions-payers may approve or deny requests, ask for more information, or require that the patient receive an alternative treatment before approving the initial request.

How digital prior authorization process works

While the steps remain unchanged between digital and manual processes, an end-to-end automated solution alleviates the administrative burden and virtually eliminates errors that can lead to delays and denials.
  1. Determine prior authorization requirements. The leading solutions continually scrape payer sites to maintain real-time information on tens of thousands of payer policies.
  1. Complete the prior authorization form. Intelligent prior authorization software identifies and fills out the appropriate prior authorization form based on the patient’s specific payer requirements.
  1. Collect the appropriate documentation. The leading solutions automatically collect and append clinical documentation from the EHR. Staff can review and validate information prior to submission.
  1. Submit the request for prior authorization and monitor for status updates. After staff review and approve the request, it’s automatically submitted through the appropriate web portal. An intelligent dashboard displays real-time status updates.
The case for digital prior authorization
The current prior authorization process is extremely burdensome and time-consuming-the average physician must complete 41 prior authorizations per week, which translates into about 14 labor hours just for completing prior authorizations, according to a 2020 American Medical Association survey. It's also one of the most costly administrative transactions, with an average expenditure of about $11 for each request. But the prior authorization landscape is changing, and the lost time and sunk costs are decreasing as intelligent automation becomes commonplace.
While a manual prior authorization takes an average of 21 minutes, a digital transaction can be completed in about four minutes, with fewer denials and faster turnaround time.


We've seen a steady shift in the industry-the results are undeniable. Health systems are turning increasingly to digital prior authorization solutions that leverage robotic process automation (RPA) to generate, submit, and monitor the status of prior authorization requests. Organizations doing this well are seeing millions of dollars in additional revenue.

What leading digital prior authorization solutions offer

  • Requirements identification: Top solutions automate whether a prior authorization is required and can identify payer-specific rules without additional manual research from staff.
  • Requirements knowledge base: The prior authorization requirements knowledge base should be continually and automatically maintained, with minimal (if any) support from the health system.
  • Automated form completion: Leading prior authorization solutions integrate with the EHR and leverage structured and unstructured data to populate the appropriate fields and save time for physicians and staff.
  • Forms library: End-to-end solutions should include a forms library, where necessary payer-specific forms can be created and maintained.
  • Documentation collection: Intelligent documentation collection automatically pulls necessary documentation from the EHR and helps reduce denials based on incomplete or missing information.
  • Automated request submission: Capabilities should include automated submission on behalf of the provider through efax, payer portals, third-party sites and other access points.
  • Status monitoring: The leading solutions offer continuous status monitoring and push update and other relevant information back to the appropriate work queues and fields in the EHR.

Organizing for digital prior authorization
success in your health system


Before implementing end-to-end automation in the prior authorization process, hospitals and health systems must:
  • Have a mature EHR with no planned changes in the near future.
  • Ensure that prior authorization practices are documented and standardized.
  • Obtain organizational buy-in from revenue cycle leadership and operations.
Other capabilities that health systems should deploy to successfully implement digital prior authorization include:
  • Mechanisms to track prior authorization performance at the department and leadership levels.
  • Integration with business systems like EHRs, call center tools and customer relationship management-this eliminates duplication of information and ensures accurate data capture.
  • Strong internal communication to educate staff about prior authorization capabilities and appropriately calibrate responsibilities.
  • Open lines of communication across payer relationship and revenue cycle teams to efficiently respond to procedural changes and resolve problems.
