Stop chasing prior auth status with payers

Prior auth does not end at submission. Someone has to check the portal, call the payer, and chase missing clinicals until the approval lands. Clicks agents do the chasing and your team keeps the clinical calls.

Stop tracking open auths in your head

Submitting the request is only the start. After that, someone checks the payer portal every day or two, calls when the status has not moved, learns a clinical note is missing, pulls it from the chart, and sends it again.

Every open request becomes a small project, tracked in someone's head or a spreadsheet. When that person is out, cases stall and procedures get rescheduled.

Close every loop before the procedure slips

Requests stay open for days

Each case needs several touches before a decision, so the open list never gets shorter.

Payers keep asking for more

Missing clinicals and new forms restart the clock and send staff back into the chart.

Delays reach the patient

A request that sits unchecked turns into a rescheduled procedure.

Get answers before you automate prior auth follow-up

What software can automate prior authorization follow-up?

Clicks Health runs AI agents that own each open prior authorization after submission. They check status in the payer portal, call the payer when the portal has no answer, send missing clinicals from the chart, and update your EHR or work queue. Medical necessity decisions and peer-to-peer reviews stay with your team.

Can AI follow up on prior authorizations?

Yes. Clicks agents track every open request, check status in the payer portal, call the payer when the portal has no answer, and send missing clinicals from the chart. Your team sees approvals, denials, and anything that needs a clinical decision.

Does Clicks make medical necessity decisions?

No. Medical necessity, peer-to-peer reviews, and policy exceptions stay with your team. The agent works from what the provider documented and never adds diagnoses or findings.

What about payers that only answer by phone or fax?

Clicks agents call payers for status and authorizations, read incoming faxes, and send outgoing ones. The work is not limited to what is on screen.

How long does it take to automate prior auth follow-up?

Clicks maps the manual steps, estimates the impact, and automates the selected workflow in 5 weeks or less, with the right controls in place.
