Utilization Management provides these prebuilt expression set templates that are readily integrated with the Omniscript processes:
- HealthCloudUM_AutoApproval - Validates if an authorization request can be auto-approved without reviews
- HealthCloudUM_DocsChecklist - Validates if an authorization request includes the required clinical documents
- HealthCloudUM_NeedAssessment - Validates if the diagnostic and service codes requested in an authorization require approval
In tandem with these predefined expression set templates, you must define a set of decision matrices to obtain rule-based workflow automation.
