HOW IT WORKS

Two lanes. One review gate.

Before submission, AppealOS checks the chart against the payer's policy. After a denial, it rebuilds the case against the same policy. In both lanes a person in your practice approves before anything can be exported — and you submit through the payer's channel, not ours.

Every image below is the live product on synthetic data — invented patients and practices, real public payer policies.

BEFORE SUBMISSION

PA readiness check

Chart → criteria check → gather what's missing → letter of medical necessity packet → your approval.

01

Chart in

Upload the chart note, labs, and prior-treatment history. Select the payer policy that governs the request.

02

Criteria check

Each criterion in the policy is marked met or not yet shown, with the chart quote beside it and the policy page cited.

Two rows of the criteria check: TB evaluation marked Unknown — missing from record, staff verification required; concomitant biologic use marked Met with the chart quote
03

Gather what's missing

"Not yet shown" means the records don't document it yet — not that the payer would deny it. The readiness report lists exactly what to obtain before submitting.

Readiness overview in the Gather state: 4 of 5 requirements documented, next item to gather is the TB evaluation
04

Letter of medical necessity packet

Drafted only once the gather list is clear. Every factual finding is cited to the chart; every requirement to the policy section it satisfies.

Letter of medical necessity header: practice letterhead, governing policy #1009 with effective date, requested medication and indication
05

Human review gate

Export is locked until a person in your practice approves. Then you export the payer copy and submit it through the payer's channel — nothing is sent from AppealOS.

AFTER A DENIAL

Appeal packet

Denial letter + chart → criteria check → cited appeal packet → staff actions → your approval → payer copy.

01

Denial letter + chart in

The denial's reasons, codes, cited policy, and deadline are extracted with a confidence score on each field. Your staff can correct any value; corrections survive re-runs.

Extracted fields from the denial letter — payer, plan type, drug — each with a confidence score, the source quote from the denial, and a Correct value control
02

Criteria check

The criteria the payer cited, checked against the payer's own published policy: met, unmet, or unknown — never met without evidence.

Coverage criteria for the denied case: prescriber specialty marked Unknown — missing from record, staff verification required; adult member and diagnosis severity marked Met with chart quotes
03

Cited appeal packet

The appeal letter, the codes and duration request, and a pre-submission checklist. Every claim carries a [C#] marker that resolves to a page of the policy or a line of the record.

04

Staff actions

What only your office can supply — a credential, a lab result, a confirmation — tracked to done. Completed values fill in at export; anything still open prints as its bracketed placeholder.

Staff actions panel: all 4 staff actions complete, policy requirements and administrative items listed with their status
05

Human review gate → payer copy

Approval unlocks the payer copy: the letter, the codes, and the enclosures list. The internal checklist and summary stay out of the envelope. Submitting stays a person's job.

Export and submit panel: packet approved, export unlocked; payer copy available as PDF or DOCX
WHAT'S IN EVERY PACKET

One case, one complete and defensible packet.

The letter

Letter of medical necessity or appeal letter, quoting the payer's own policy language, signed by your provider.

Criteria table

Met, unmet, or unknown for every criterion, each linked to the evidence in the record and the page of the policy.

Codes & duration

ICD-10, CPT and HCPCS codes drawn from the policy, plus an explicit authorization-duration request.

Staff-action checklist

What to attach, confirm, or waive before submitting — the items only your office can supply.

Sources list

Every [C#] marker resolved to a quoted page of the payer's policy or a line of the chart.

Payer copy & internal record

A clean PDF or DOCX for the payer after approval; the checklist and summary stay in your record, with the outcome logged.

Behind both lanes: a payer policy library. The published medical policies for the biologics you prescribe, per payer, stored with version and effective date. Your payers' policies are loaded before your first case.
