Itiliti Health & Concord Technologies Partner to Accelerate Prior Authorization with Intelligent Document Processing
MINNEAPOLIS, MN, UNITED STATES, January 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Itiliti Health, a leader in prior authorization automation, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Concord Technologies, a leading provider of Secure Document Exchange, AI-driven Intelligent Document Processing, and Interoperability solutions purpose-built for healthcare. This partnership brings together Concord’s AI-powered Concord Connect™ platform and Itiliti Health’s automation and policy management engine to deliver a more seamless, end-to-end prior authorization workflow that transforms how payers manage unstructured clinical data in real time.
Many payers still receive clinical documentation in PDFs, faxes, or scanned attachments, making the ability to accurately convert unstructured files into actionable data critical for automation and compliance with regulatory requirements like CMS-0057-F. The integration of Concord Connect with Itiliti’s prior authorization platform meets that goal by enabling high-volume intake, classification, and routing of clinical documentation directly into automated decision logic.
“It’s exciting to partner with Concord, a leader in solving one of the toughest challenges in healthcare: making unstructured data usable,” said Michael Lunzer, CEO of Itiliti Health. “Our partnership allows payers to close the automation loop by feeding extracted data into our prior authorization decision engine in real time.”
“We are excited to work with Itiliti Health to extend Concord Connect’s capabilities into the prior authorization automation space,” added William Cavanaugh, CEO of Concord Technologies. “Together, we are equipping health plans with the tools they need to make faster, more accurate decisions and move closer to true end-to-end automation.”
Key capabilities of the Itiliti and Concord Connect integration include:
● Document Intelligence at Scale: AI-based document classification, data extraction, and workflow routing of faxes, PDFs, and clinical attachments
● Seamless Workflow Integration: Structured data flows directly into Itiliti’s prior authorization engine, accelerating turnaround times and reducing manual processing
● Regulatory Readiness: Supports CMS 0057-F aligned processes by unifying document ingestion with automation and policy transparency
● Operational Efficiency: Reduces delays caused by manual document review, enabling teams to focus on higher-value work
● Cloud-Based and Scalable: The combined solution supports rapid deployment and scaling across health plans of all sizes
Healthcare organizations looking to reduce administrative burden and digitize the intake-to-decision process for prior authorization can implement the Itiliti-Concord Connect solution immediately.
