Integrated Claims Clearinghouse to Optimize Epic Workqueues
With your organization’s investment in Epic, your number one priority when evaluating claim clearinghouse vendors is selecting one that can smoothly integrate and support your optimization needs downstream. Many vendors claim to offer this support, but the reality often falls short. Availity Essentials Pro consistently ranks highly with Epic customers and offers a deeply integrated experience and expertise both during your implementation and beyond. We strive to be the single vendor of choice for revenue cycle automation within Epic—saving you time and money and helping you achieve great results.

Reduce Denials by Supporting Front-desk Staff
Payer denials are on the rise, and one of the most effective ways to prevent them is to ensure registration and front-desk staff have the most current information, either before or at the point of service. The Availity Essentials Pro revenue cycle solution connects directly to Epic’s Prelude patient registration module and delivers high-quality critical payer and patient data including:
- Batch and real-time eligibility (RTE) via 270/271 with value added details like member ID cards and gaps in care
- 278 R (authorization request), I (authorization inquiry), and N (notice of admission)
- Propensity to pay, which includes credit score & address verification
