Don't schedule the procedure before authorization is actually approved

A clinic tracks insurance prior authorization requests in a shared inbox, so a procedure gets scheduled before anyone confirms the authorization was actually approved. Build a scheduling gate tied to real authorization status.

A shared inbox doesn't gate a schedule

When authorization status lives in an inbox, scheduling staff have no reliable way to check it before booking a procedure. A denied or still-pending authorization can slip through, leaving the practice or patient exposed to an unexpected bill.

Make scheduling depend on a confirmed, current authorization status—not a status someone might have missed in the inbox.

From request to scheduling
  1. 1. Prior authorization request is created for a planned procedure
  2. 2. Required documentation is submitted to the payer
  3. 3. Status is tracked—pending, approved, denied, info needed
  4. 4. Denials trigger an appeal or alternative plan
  5. 5. Procedure scheduling is gated on an approved authorization

  • An authorization approaching its expiry window must be flagged before the procedure date, not after.
