From denial to resolution. Step by step.
AuthAnnie turns the messy, manual denial appeal process into a structured, evidence-driven workflow. Here's how.
A denial arrives
When a claim is denied, the denial details — reason code, payer, drug, patient — enter the AuthAnnie pipeline. Whether it's a CO-4, a PR-204, or any other code, the system knows what it's dealing with.
AuthAnnie categorizes the denial by type, payer, and therapeutic area. It identifies the specific criteria the payer is using and maps it against the patient's clinical record.
Clinical evidence is assembled
AuthAnnie pulls the relevant clinical data: diagnosis codes, lab results (T-scores, blood work), imaging studies, prior treatment history, and any other data points that support medical necessity.
Each data point is extracted with a confidence score. The system identifies which clinical guidelines apply — ASBMR for osteoporosis, NCCN for oncology, ACR for rheumatology — and maps the patient's data against the guideline criteria.
An appeal is generated
A tailored appeal letter is produced — not a generic template, but a letter that addresses the specific denial reason with the patient's specific clinical evidence and the relevant guideline citations.
The appeal is structured to meet payer expectations: patient demographics, clinical summary, guideline references, and a clear argument for medical necessity. Your team reviews, edits if needed, and submits.
Outcomes are tracked
After submission, AuthAnnie tracks the appeal status through resolution. Win rates, turnaround times, and revenue recovered are reported in real time.
Over time, your data reveals patterns — which payers deny most frequently, which denial codes are easiest to overturn, and where your practice is losing the most revenue. This data drives smarter payer strategy.
