Valer® — Real-Time Insights to Optimize Authorization Workflows

In Part 6 of The Prior Auth Reckoning series, Dr. Steve Kim unpacks why clinical documentation remains one of healthcare’s biggest guessing games. With proprietary payer criteria, fragmented EHR workflows, and limited staff training, providers face constant uncertainty about what evidence payers will accept. Learn how technology, data mapping, and decision support can replace trial-and-error with precision and confidence.

In Part 5 of The Prior Auth Reckoning series, Dr. Steve Kim exposes one of the most overlooked sources of denials in healthcare: provider and facility matching. Even the smallest NPI or TIN mismatch can invalidate an authorization and cause major financial fallout. Learn why precision is key—and how automation can prevent costly errors before they reach the payer.

In Part 4 of The Prior Auth Reckoning series, Dr. Steve Kim explores why managing 900+ payer portals has become unsustainable, how contractual complexity compounds errors, and what providers can do now to consolidate workflows, reduce denials, and protect patient access.
