SEATTLE, March 5, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- MCG Health, part of the Hearst Health network and a leading provider of informed care strategies, announces the certified integration of its MCG Cite AutoAuth solution with Casenet, LLC's latest release of the TruCare ProAuth™ platform. This extended partnership will help promote seamless payer-provider prior author determinations by combining the robust evidence base of MCG care guidelines, the customizable decision tree logic of Cite AutoAuth, and Casenet's innovative digital authorization tool. The trifecta of these powerful solutions enables providers to process authorization requests more quickly and easily while simultaneously reducing administrative burdens associated with the request for information (RFI) process.
The value for both providers and payers using Cite AutoAuth within TruCare ProAuth™ is the reduction of cumbersome phone and fax authorization requests, as well as the opportunity to base authorization decisions on a common, evidence-based language. MCG care guidelines are already licensed by nine of the largest health plans and nearly 2,000 U.S. hospitals which is a strong sign of their trusted reputation across the entire healthcare industry. Casenet, well known for innovation, implementation, and client service, was ranked Best in KLAS in 2017, 2018, and 2019.
"Casenet's integration with Cite AutoAuth solves the back-and-forth requests for information that hinder the authorization process," said Peter Masanotti, CEO of Casenet. "It enables efficiency, accuracy, and transparency in prior authorization processes through automation, allowing providers and payers to spend more time on valuable work and improving the provider and patient experience."
MCG President and CEO, Jon Shreve, added, "MCG and Casenet have been working together for years, and this new integration will further enhance the combined value we bring to both payer and provider clients and ultimately, to the patient."
