Payers, health plans, Managed Care and Coordinated Care Organizations (MCO/CCO), Third-Party Administrators (TPA) and benefit administrators are all looking to streamline their utilization management review operations and make them as efficient as possible. Prior authorizations, the continuation of care and medical necessity evaluations are increasingly a challenge for many payer organizations. With a scarcity in nursing and physician advisor resources, plus volume fluctuations, it’s increasingly tough for many organizations to staff for and manage these critical functions. And with many demands on in-house Medical Directors, many payer organizations are increasingly partnering with companies like AllMed for processing their incoming service requests.
