AI for prior authorization

Insurers have algorithms. Now you do too.

InfiMed AI reads the chart, fills the payer form, submits it, watches for a decision, and writes the evidence-backed appeal when the answer comes back wrong. Your staff reviews and signs off — that's the job now.

The problem

Prior authorization is quietly bankrupting the front desk.

It is the most expensive clerical process in American medicine, and it is growing. Every hour spent chasing an approval is an hour nobody spends on a patient.

  • The paperwork tax

    Physicians and their staff lose the better part of two working days a week to authorization forms, payer portals, faxes and hold music — work that generates no clinical value and no revenue.

    13 hrs

    per physician, every week

  • Denials at machine speed

    Utilization management is increasingly automated on the payer side. Requests are screened and rejected in seconds, while the rebuttal is still assembled by a human being with a highlighter.

    1 in 3

    requests denied on first pass

  • Patients wait, then give up

    A delay of a few days sounds administrative until it is your therapy that stalls. Care gets postponed, conditions progress, and a meaningful share of patients abandon treatment entirely.

    78%

    of physicians see patients abandon care

Burden figures reflect the American Medical Association's 2024 prior authorization physician survey.

How it works

Four steps. Half a minute.

InfiMed AI works the way your staff already does — it just does the slow parts instantly and never forgets to follow up.

  1. 01

    Drop in the chart

    Upload a referral packet, a clinical note or a scanned fax. InfiMed AI reads it the way a nurse would: diagnosis codes, prior therapies, lab values, dates and prescriber details, all extracted and structured.

    ~5 seconds

  2. 02

    Let the agent fill the form

    It selects the right payer form for the plan and drug or procedure, then completes every field against the current coverage policy — flagging the criteria you still need to satisfy rather than guessing.

    ~10 seconds

  3. 03

    Review and send

    Your team sees a clean, side-by-side summary with every value traced back to its source page. Approve it and InfiMed AI submits through the payer's portal, fax line or FHIR endpoint.

    ~15 seconds

  4. 04

    Track, then fight back

    Status is polled automatically. If a request is denied, InfiMed AI drafts a citation-backed appeal addressing the stated reason within minutes — so nothing sits in a pile waiting for someone to notice.

    Continuous

Capabilities

Everything the approval actually requires.

One workspace for the whole lifecycle — intake to decision to appeal — with an audit trail your compliance team can defend.

  • AI powered

    Clinical document understanding

    Scanned faxes, handwritten notes and 40-page referral packets get parsed into structured clinical facts, each one linked back to the page it came from.

  • Payer-aware form engine

    A maintained library of plan-specific forms and coverage criteria, so the request that leaves your office already matches what that payer asks for.

  • Signature feature

    Evidence-backed appeals

    When a denial arrives, InfiMed AI retrieves the governing clinical guidance, quotes it accurately, and answers the payer's stated reason point by point.

  • Live status tracking

    Every open request in one queue, with automatic status checks, deadline countdowns and alerts before a timely-filing window closes.

  • Denial intelligence

    See which payers deny what, which criteria trip you up most, and which appeal arguments actually overturn decisions across your book of business.

  • Built for PHI from day one

    Encryption in transit and at rest, least-privilege access, full audit logging, US-only data residency and a signed BAA before your first upload.

The difference

Appeals that cite real guidelines — not generic language.

Most appeal templates restate the request louder. InfiMed AI builds an argument: it finds the governing clinical guidance, quotes the passage that applies to this patient, and rebuts the specific reason the payer gave.

  • Retrieves current specialty-society guidance and labelling at the moment of drafting
  • Quotes the recommendation verbatim, with the issuing body and publication year
  • Answers the payer's stated denial reason directly, criterion by criterion
  • Pulls the patient's documented history and failed prior therapies from the chart
  • Formats as a signature-ready letter with prescriber, NPI and member identifiers
  • Delivers a reviewable draft in under a minute, with every citation linked

Draft appeal

Denial reason: step therapy not documented

Sources retrieved

  • Specialty society standard of care2025
  • FDA-approved labellingcurrent
  • Plan medical policyrev. 2025

The determination cites an absence of documented step therapy. The record establishes two prior agents trialled at therapeutic doses for 14 and 19 weeks respectively, both discontinued for documented intolerance — a sequence the plan's own policy accepts in lieu of the standard step requirement.

Every quoted passage links to its source before you sign.

By the numbers

From the front desk

What changes in the first month.

Composite accounts from pilot practices, shared with permission and attributed by role.

  • We used to run a Thursday backlog session just for authorizations. That meeting no longer exists. The queue clears itself and my team only touches the ones that need judgment.

    Practice administrator

    Four-site endocrinology group

  • The appeal drafts are the part I did not expect. They read like something a clinician wrote, they cite the actual guideline, and I can see where every sentence came from before I sign it.

    Lead nurse practitioner

    Independent rheumatology practice

  • Nothing falls through any more. Deadlines are tracked, statuses update themselves, and I stopped finding two-week-old denials at the bottom of the fax tray.
