eviCore intelliPath® is eviCore’s electronic prior authorization solution housing a suite of capabilities that simplify and automate the prior authorization process. These capabilities include connectivity, real-time decisions, case validation, and simplified clinical surveys.

eviCore intelliPath® is deployed by provider organizations to automate and simplify submitting and tracking requests for prior authorization. eviCore intelliPath® streamlines operations within a single easy-to-use application that integrates with major electronic health record (EHR) vendors. Provider costs are reduced and decisions are communicated in real time, reducing delays.

Administrative Cost Savings

eviCore’s medical benefits management solutions are proven to reduce unnecessary–and potentially harmful–tests and procedures. But securing prior authorization can impose a high burden on provider organizations; for example, dedicated administrative staff are hired to request and track cases, and clinicians typically must allocate time to provide details on the patient’s medical diagnosis.

In place of implementing an abundance of tools, multiple health plan portals, and time-consuming manual interactions, eviCore intelliPath® simplifies and streamlines prior authorization operations with a single, integrated application. eviCore intelliPath® leverages the substantial investment in EMRs on the part of provider networks. It automatically incorporates case details from the patient’s chart and fits seamlessly into clinical and revenue cycle workflows.

Clinical Efficiency

Further, eviCore intelliPath® integrates with eviCore’s utilization management system (and those of other UM providers). This speeds communication of critical information (e.g., automated approval, no prior authorization required, or additional clinical information is needed for a decision to be made). With the approval or denial in hand, patients can be scheduled or alternative tests or procedures ordered in a timely fashion.
