About This Webinar

Prior authorization (PA) remains a significant pain point for health care providers and payers, with the traditional one-size-fits-all model contributing to administrative burden, care delays, and strained relationships. But gold carding solutions aren’t ideal–they often lack transparency, creating new complexities and added friction. Providers benefit from a more automated, collaborative PA approach that reduces manual, time-consuming processes, so they can truly focus on their patients. And it’s imperative that both provider and payer perspectives help drive this change.

This webinar brings together payer and provider leaders in an open conversation about what is (and isn’t) working; opportunities for better collaboration; and how payers can take a more intelligent, personalized PA approach that improves provider and patient experiences and, most importantly, supports high-quality care and outcomes.

Attendees Will Learn

  • What providers’ biggest PA pain points are and where they see opportunities to improve workflows and member care
  • How AI-driven automation and clinical intelligence can streamline processes, reduce provider burden, and promote quality care
  • How to build trust, reduce friction, and create a more collaborative provider-centric PA experience
