Summary
 In this episode of Medical Practice Manager, Finch breaks down why prior authorization requests stall for days in independent clinics and how simple front-end fixes can slash delays without extra staff. The core issue is often incomplete submissions rather than payer rules, leading to manual reviews, patient wait times, and stalled revenue. Learn to build a quick pre-submission checklist, verify eligibility on the service date, match diagnosis codes precisely, and attach recent progress notes proving medical necessity.

Key takeaways:
- Create a shared intake form capturing exact requirements from your top three payers, updated monthly.
- Track every submission in a spreadsheet to spot patterns like repeated code rejections and refine request letters.
- Maintain a folder of approved examples for consistent wording.
- Set daily calendar checks for expiring auths and centralize scattered notes into one document owned by the renewal handler.

These steps cut repeat requests by half and free hours for denial work. 📩 Have questions or want to share your experience? Reach out at medical@senseofthisshit.com. Support the show: https://www.spreaker.com/podca...
