Availity Amedisys Press Release
2.22.2018 By
Thanks to a new relationship with Availity, LLC, Amedisys, Inc, one of the nation’s leading home health, hospice and personal care providers, is processing authorizations more efficiently – and less costly. Previously, Amedisys processed every authorization for managed care claims manually, through either a website or a phone call, requiring 15 to 20 minutes per claim. As a result, authorizations often took too long to complete, thus raising administrative costs and at times, delaying patient care. To address those longstanding challenges, Amedisys forged a relationship with Availity, the nation’s largest real-time health information network. Availity electronically synthesizes and shares data in real-time between providers and health plans nationwide.
