In today's episode, Alok Patel (@AlokPatelMD) & Adam Rose (@Adjoro) cover Epic bringing prior authorization checks directly into the EHR.
New federal rules will require Medicare Advantage Medicaid and ACA marketplace insurers to support electronic prior authorization APIs by January 1. Epic's Coverage Requirements Discovery shows coverage requirements and documentation needs inside the chart without payer portals or phone calls. They also break down undisclosed deaths in Chinese gene editing trials involving high dose AAV9 vectors and what the delays reveal about safety oversight.
