Jay Eisenstock Speaks in a Panel at HIMSS

“Easing the Pain of Prior Authorization: Operational Advice for Healthcare Providers” was held at HIMSS on Tuesday, March 10.

With prior authorization remaining one of the great healthcare information technology policy challenges facing our industry, the process of obtaining prior approval for services creates a significant burden for providers and often leads to unnecessary delays in care at the expense of the patient’s health. Hear from healthcare’s top experts in this space as they explore operating rules, methodologies and technology solutions that can be employed to eliminate points of pain for both patients and providers. In this session, they’ll also examine ways to increase automation and workflow integration to meet prior authorization requirements through FHIR-based APIs, EHRs, Communication Tools and Cloud Solutions.
