How I work in this space

Prior Authorization Innovation — what I actually do.

Workflow Intelligence, Not Automation Theater

Prior auth is a poster child for fragmented ownership. AI only earns its ROI when it sits inside a redesigned operating model — not bolted onto the broken one.

Outcome-Based Operational Design

Design prior auth around the patient outcome — approval time, denial rate, appeal load — not around the next task in the queue.

Payer ↔ Provider Accountability

Ownership lines crossing payer and provider boundaries are where most prior-auth failure lives. Make those lines explicit and the workflow stops drifting.

AI + Workforce + Governance Together

AI, workforce strategy, and governance redesigned as one operating model — the approach behind the Spirit Works AI work.

Executive POV
Prior authorization isn't broken because the rules are hard. It's broken because nobody owns the outcome end-to-end. Fix the ownership model and AI starts compounding the answer instead of the friction.
