Prior Authorizations Done Right: Prevent Denials and Protect Revenue
Live Medical Billing Webinar
Date: Tuesday, September 22, 2026
Time: 11:00 AM–12:30 PM Pacific Time
Length: 90 minutes

Replay Access: Available for 48 hours after the live webinar
Prior authorization errors can delay patient care, create unnecessary staff work, and result in claims that may never be paid. An authorization may be issued for the wrong procedure, provider, location, date range, or number of visits. In other cases, the practice may not discover that authorization was required until after services have already been provided.
Our webinar will help medical practices develop a stronger prior authorization workflow—from verifying requirements before scheduling to preventing and resolving authorization-related claim denials.
What You Will Learn
During this webinar, attendees will learn how to:
Distinguish between referrals, notifications, precertifications, predeterminations, and prior authorizations
Determine whether authorization is required based on the payer, plan, service, diagnosis, provider, and place of service
Gather the correct patient, provider, coding, and clinical information before submitting a request
Strengthen medical-necessity documentation
Track pending requests, reference numbers, follow-up dates, visits, units, and expiration dates
Confirm that an approval matches the treatment the provider intends to perform
Prevent denials involving incorrect codes, providers, dates, locations, or exhausted units
Identify when an authorization must be corrected, amended, extended, or replaced
Conduct a pre-billing authorization review
Respond when treatment is provided while an authorization request remains pending
Investigate, correct, reconsider, appeal, and escalate authorization-related claim denials
Create clear accountability between scheduling, authorization, clinical, and billing staff

One Missed Authorization Can Cost More Than the Registration Fee
When a required authorization is missed or incorrect, the practice may lose reimbursement for the entire service. Staff may then spend additional hours contacting the payer, correcting claims, preparing appeals, and explaining unexpected balances to patients.
The goal is not simply to obtain an authorization number. The goal is to obtain the correct authorization, use it properly, submit a clean claim, and receive payment.
Register today for $169 and give your staff a clearer process for preventing denials and protecting practice revenue.
