Laboratory and Pathology Prior Authorization Software

The Challenge
Improving Revenue
Prior authorization requirements in the laboratory space create unique and complex challenges. The payment lifecycle for laboratories begins with prior authorization. Receiving prior authorization approval after performing a lab test is becoming a less viable option; as is fighting denials for lack of prior authorization approval during the appeal process. Some payers are still allowing retroactive authorizations; however, laboratories which test specimens without prior authorization run the risk of performing uncompensated tests.
Processing prior authorizations manually specifically for genetics and molecular testing often creates lost authorizations, decrease in patient satisfaction, and higher denial rates. Also, labs have complex and expensive CPT codes that often create significant challenges in gaining prior authorization approvals. As a provider, you can’t complete the test until you receive the approval, which often requires navigating proprietary and nonstandard workflows. Getting approval is critical to preserving revenue through the entire process.
