Podcast: How AI and the Improving Seniors’ Timely Access to Care Act Can Revolutionize Prior Authorizations

On this week's episode of Data Book, Chief Healthcare Executive™ spoke Blair Childs, senior vice president of public affairs at Premier. We discussed potential for the Improving Seniors’ Timely Access to Care Act (HR 3173) to be signed into law and how it will improve access to care for patients by changing how prior authorizations for prescriptions are done. We also talked about how machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies can help health systems adjust if the bill is signed into law and how they can help automate prior authorizations.
