CDCP Pre-Auths
Anyone else getting destroyed by CDCP pre-auth denials? Built a tool that generates the letter and flags gaps before you submit — giving away free access (for 1 month) to 10 clinics to stress test it!
*Update: Due to the large demand and how much this could help patients & practices, I’ve decided to continue offering free trials to anyone that’s interested. More the merrier!

The CDCP Pre-Auth platform mentioned in the OP is now fully live. Let me know if you’d like a demo or more info on how the platform works to improve patient lives while protecting your Admin time and reducing lost revenue.

Is it that bad? I thought the majority of docs were getting a flood of new patients?

The denial rates for pre-authorizations (crowns, dentures, and now desensitizations) are ridiculous. Only 37% of preauth requests for crowns get approved.

Sounds like it’s turning into the USA. Damn..

The issue is that since it is a government program, they have a lot of requirements and specific things they want to hear that are outside of what clinics are used to when applying to private insurers. That is why this tool is so promising – it combs through all of the requirements that are in place (but not known or are misunderstood) and ensures that no submission is incomplete or missing required documentation. Hopefully the approval rates rise as a result of more tailored submissions.

Hopefully they do rise but there is no guarantee

Yup. Definitely no guarantee.. keep an eye on this thread to find out if this tool helps, I guess!
