<v Narrator>Patients and providers want healthcare</v>

2
00:00:03.750 --> 00:00:06.060
to be as simple as possible,

3
00:00:06.060 --> 00:00:08.850
but prior authorizations can slow down the process,

4
00:00:08.850 --> 00:00:10.590
resulting in inconveniences

5
00:00:10.590 --> 00:00:12.603
like delayed approvals for medication.

6
00:00:14.340 --> 00:00:16.500
Now, imagine if providers could submit

7
00:00:16.500 --> 00:00:19.920
a prior authorization request and get an answer in seconds,

8
00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:23.190
not hours or days without ever having to dig up

9
00:00:23.190 --> 00:00:25.650
supporting clinical information.

10
00:00:25.650 --> 00:00:28.650
It's all possible with PreCheck Prior Authorization,

11
00:00:28.650 --> 00:00:32.070
a groundbreaking new capability from Optum Rx.

12
00:00:32.070 --> 00:00:34.200
With PreCheck Prior Authorization,

13
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:36.930
authorization is tied to clinical data extraction

14
00:00:36.930 --> 00:00:39.630
from a provider's electronic medical records.

15
00:00:39.630 --> 00:00:41.370
Here's how it works.

16
00:00:41.370 --> 00:00:43.950
First providers submit an electronic PA request

17
00:00:43.950 --> 00:00:46.350
in their electronic health record.

18
00:00:46.350 --> 00:00:48.060
Then we assess whether the request

19
00:00:48.060 --> 00:00:49.593
is eligible for automation.

20
00:00:50.460 --> 00:00:52.800
If so, we retrieve targeted relevant data

21
00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:54.420
from the provider's EMR

22
00:00:54.420 --> 00:00:57.070
to complete the clinical questions needed for the PA.

23
00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:00.960
Finally, we analyze the question set

24
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:02.550
and send an automatic approval

25
00:01:02.550 --> 00:01:04.533
if all clinical criteria are met.

26
00:01:06.570 --> 00:01:07.830
The median turnaround time

27
00:01:07.830 --> 00:01:10.410
for this automatic PreCheck PA process?

28
00:01:10.410 --> 00:01:12.360
Just 29 seconds on average

29
00:01:12.360 --> 00:01:16.350
compared to eight and a half hours in a standard PA process.

30
00:01:16.350 --> 00:01:18.210
That's good for the patient experience

31
00:01:18.210 --> 00:01:19.563
and good for outcomes.

32
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:24.540
It also results in much less administrative work,

33
00:01:24.540 --> 00:01:26.823
which is good for overloaded providers.

34
00:01:30.510 --> 00:01:32.820
Our automatic PreCheck PA capabilities

35
00:01:32.820 --> 00:01:35.640
smooths out patient and provider experiences

36
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:38.190
and ultimately helps improve care,

37
00:01:38.190 --> 00:01:41.253
getting medication into patient's hands more efficiently.
