Beyond Documentation: AI’s Role in Prior Auth and Denials

What if the real value of AI in healthcare is giving physicians their full attention back?

In this episode, Dr. Matthew Tomaino, Medical Director of Orthopedics and Sports Medicine at WellNow Urgent Care, discusses how AI can improve clinical documentation, coding, reimbursement, and the patient experience. Drawing on more than three decades as an orthopedic surgeon and his experience managing a solo practice, he explains why technology must produce concise, clinically relevant notes that accurately reflect a physician’s judgment. He also explores how ambient AI can reduce after-hours work, support prior authorization, prevent documentation-related denials, and improve efficiency throughout the revenue cycle.

Tune in to hear how AI can move administrative work into the background and help physicians focus their time and attention on patients.
