What aspect of patient care does the 'Authorization' module directly support?

The 'Authorization' module is a key component of EpicCare Link that focuses on the tracking of authorization requests for services. This module allows healthcare providers to manage and document the authorization process, ensuring that necessary approvals are obtained before certain services or treatments are rendered. This is crucial not only for compliance with insurance requirements but also for streamlined patient care, as it helps avoid delays in treatment and ensures that patients receive the necessary care without unexpected out-of-pocket expenses.

The tracking capability of this module aids in maintaining accurate records of which services have been authorized, who authorized them, and any communication related to these authorizations, thus enhancing the coordination of care. This level of tracking directly impacts patient care by facilitating a smoother process for accessing necessary treatments.
