All Administrative efficiency

The Inflation Reduction Act – or IRA – contains $500 billion in new funding and tax breaks intended to boost clean energy, strengthen taxpayer compliance, and reduce healthcare costs. It includes three provisions concerning Medicare prescription drug prices that have the potential to dramatically impact the pharmaceutical industry, and patient support in particular. For a...

Last week, members of the Infinitus team attended Asembia’s AXS24 Summit, the annual conference that brings together leaders from across the pharmaceutical landscape to discuss the industry’s biggest trends, issues, and developments. Every Asembia summit is a chance to learn – and not only from speakers who take the stage – and this year’s conference...

Increasingly employer-sponsored plans are including copay accumulators, copay maximizers, or alternative funding sources as part of their plan design. In fact, estimates suggest about half of all lives covered by commercial insurance are enrolled in a plan that utilizes a copay accumulator and/or a maximizer.  If your team is responsible for guiding individuals through coverage...

Technically, the annual insurance reverification period (often known as blizzard) lasts just a handful of weeks. However, reality tells a different story. We know our customers spend months preparing for each January, when patients’ access to medication can be put into question because of changes to formularies, deductibles, and out-of-pocket requirements.  With this year’s blizzard...

At Infinitus, we spend a lot of time talking about the advantages of benefit verification automation. AI can transform healthcare’s back-office administrative processes, helping create time for the industry to improve access, adherence, and affordability – something we’re committed to as an organization. But why is benefit verification, specifically, a strong fit for automation?  Read...

Depending on your company and role within healthcare, you’re either researching AI, experimenting with AI, or scaling up your approach. But regardless of where you are in your AI journey, there are a number of questions to answer and items to mull over.  Here are some key considerations to weigh as you embark upon creating...

The COVID-19 pandemic increased the amount of time we spend communicating through screens instead of in person. The result: a growing sense of isolation, one that the US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy believes contributed to an “epidemic of loneliness.” This highlights a paradox: Healthcare, one of the most personal of services, now lacks connection...

Healthcare professionals generally gravitate to the field because they genuinely want to help people. In my experience, from senior clinicians to researchers to administrative staff, everyone’s goal is to ensure patients get the right treatment as quickly as possible. One thing not on their career plan? Spending hours on the phone trying to complete benefit...

As the American Medical Association puts it, prior authorization creates “a huge administrative burden” for healthcare providers that often delays patient care. Despite this, reports suggest prior authorizations are increasingly common – and are increasingly leading to problems. The good news is: Prior authorization automation – especially in patient access programs – can be a...

A wrongly denied insurance claim is a double-whammy. First, and most importantly, it can cause a delay in a patient’s treatment (and as a result, delayed revenue for the provider). But it also results in increased costs associated with re-submitting a claim. And unfortunately, benefit verification errors, which lead to such denials, aren’t uncommon. Those...

Artificial intelligence (AI) dominates today’s headlines, with the stories see-sawing between two fears: AI will take over our brains, or humans will also lose their jobs to AI. “AI doomerism,” as the Techdirt blog calls it, sees little middle ground between humans and AI.  But at Infinitus, we have a more positive vision of the...
