- Coverage Requirements Discovery (CRD) API to determine if prior authorization is necessary
- Documentation Templates and Rules (DTR) API to discover the clinical documentation requirements and compile necessary information from the provider’s system
- Prior Authorization Support (PAS) API to receive prior authorization submissions and send responses on status, approvals, and denials
