As healthcare payers face increasing complexities from evolving regulatory mandates to rising administrative costs, the demand for efficient, accurate, and compliant prior authorization processes has never been greater. The CMS Interoperability and Prior Authorization Final Rule (CMS-0057-F) intensifies the need for greater transparency and speed, pressuring payers to modernize workflows while maintaining operational excellence.

SDS and Basys.ai offer an end-to-end solution designed to automate every step of the prior authorization process. This solution eliminates manual burdens, expedites approvals, and enhances decision accuracy, enabling health plans and TPAs to focus on their core mission: improving member care while effectively managing costs.
