Client or enterprise experience / Healthcare
Prior Authorization Workflow Design Experience
Administrative work and exceptions were being discussed as an automation problem before the review tiers and escalation paths were explicit.
What this is
Client or enterprise experience
What it supports
It shows why TKO begins with a measured workflow and exception baseline rather than assuming software, staffing, or AI is the answer.
What it does not prove
The experience is anonymized and employment-based. Client identity, workflow artifacts, baselines, and post-implementation measures are not publishable.
1. Buyer or operating context
Healthcare operations spanning prior authorization, utilization management, provider-facing work, compliance, technology, and clinical review.
2. Triggering problem
Administrative work and exceptions were being discussed as an automation problem before the review tiers and escalation paths were explicit.
3. What was breaking
Routine handling, exceptions, human review, audit requirements, and payer/provider coordination were intertwined rather than designed as distinct workflow states.
4. Why conventional approaches were insufficient
Adding automation to an undefined workflow would have preserved inconsistent routing and hidden decision rights.
5. Todd's role
Todd contributed healthcare workflow, product, governance, and transformation experience within enterprise operating environments. No organization or client is named.
6. Intervention
The work decomposed the workflow into review tiers, exception paths, escalation, audit requirements, and human decision points before considering machine assistance.
7. Evidence or result
The operating requirements and control boundaries became explicit enough to support a responsible implementation decision. No measured denial, turnaround, capacity, or financial result is claimed.
8. Limits of the available evidence
The experience is anonymized and employment-based. Client identity, workflow artifacts, baselines, and post-implementation measures are not publishable.
9. Why this matters to a prospective buyer
It shows why TKO begins with a measured workflow and exception baseline rather than assuming software, staffing, or AI is the answer.
Evidence record
What can be supported publicly.
These statements establish operating scope, mechanisms, or implementation capability. They do not create a quantified prior-authorization outcome claim.
Diagnostic fit call

The Prior Authorization Performance Diagnostic measures one defined workflow, separates symptoms from addressable causes, and gives leadership a 90-day improvement plan.
