# What will AGI do for Medical Necessity Criteria Matching?

## Overview

Healthcare providers cannot secure reimbursement or prior authorization without proving a requested procedure meets a payer’s specific medical necessity criteria. Utilization management teams and billing specialists spend hours cross-referencing patient charts against dense, payer-specific policy documents. This manual matching process dictates whether a hospital gets paid and determines the timeline for a patient's care.

Payer guidelines are fragmented, frequently updated, and rely on complex proprietary frameworks like MCG or InterQual. A single approval requires establishing a documented history of failed conservative treatments, specific diagnostic values, and rigid timeline thresholds. Specialists dig through unstructured clinical notes, external PDFs, and faxed histories to locate the exact clinical evidence that satisfies the payer's logic.

Existing software relies on static decision trees that force human users to extract and input data point by point. Legacy tools fail to bridge the gap between unstructured electronic medical records and strictly structured insurance policies. This structural disconnect leaves expensive clinical staff acting as manual translators, converting physician narratives into insurance compliance checklists.
