# What will AGI do for Manual Prior Authorization?

## Overview

Clinicians and revenue cycle teams spend hours daily extracting patient data from electronic health records to justify treatments to insurance companies. Prior authorization requires matching a patient's unstructured clinical history, including lab results and physician notes, against highly specific medical necessity criteria. Without this upfront approval, providers face immediate claim denials and severely delayed patient care.

This friction persists because payer guidelines are published as dense documentation and updated continuously without standardized formats. Billing staff manually read through dozens of pages of clinical notes to find a single required data point, such as a documented failure of conservative therapy over a six-week period. Legacy software cannot parse free-text clinical fields or interpret them against the complex logic trees required by different health plans.

Insurance companies structurally benefit from this manual bottleneck, as abandoned authorizations and technical denials reduce their payout liabilities. Current revenue cycle tools only manage the routing of documents, completely failing to automate the clinical chart review and evidence mapping. Hospitals remain dependent on large teams of nurses and billing specialists performing manual data extraction across disconnected payer portals.
