Prior authorization (PA) has long been a universal frustration in healthcare — slowing down care, straining providers, and frustrating patients. But major reforms are underway. In this episode of The Deep Dive, we explore the 2027 commitments that are set to transform PA through automation, transparency, and interoperability.

We break down:

• Why reform is inevitable — not if, but when

• The five key commitments driving change (from ePA to gold carding)

• How payers can turn compliance into a strategic advantage

• Real opportunities to strengthen provider trust, reduce costs, and improve patient outcomes

If you’re a healthcare leader navigating utilization management, compliance, or payer-provider relationships, this conversation is essential.
