Over 56% of joint replacement patients require prior authorization. Greenlight automates PA for orthopedic procedures so your team spends less time on paperwork and more time getting patients to the OR.
For orthopedic practices, every delayed authorization means a patient in pain waiting longer for relief and an empty OR slot costing you revenue.
Patients wait days or weeks for PA approval on joint replacements, spine surgeries, and arthroscopies, even though 98.5% are eventually approved.
Payers require therapy records, imaging results, and clinical justification. Collecting and formatting all of this manually is a full-time job.
When authorizations stall, surgical slots go unfilled. That is direct revenue loss your practice cannot afford.
34% of orthopedic offices have staff whose sole responsibility is processing PAs. That is expensive overhead driven by an inefficient system.
Greenlight plugs into your existing workflow.
A referring physician orders imaging or a procedure like MRI, arthroscopy, or joint replacement. Greenlight automatically captures the order from your EHR or fax.
Greenlight extracts clinical details, attaches therapy records and imaging history, applies payer-specific rules, and assembles a complete PA request ready for submission.
We submit directly to payer portals, track status in real time, and notify your team when approved. If a peer-to-peer is needed, we prepare the documentation.
Reduce PA processing from days to hours
Stop losing OR time to administrative delays
