Keena Healthcare Technology & Valer Partner to Speed and Simplify Prior Authorization Workflows

Partnership enables automated prior authorization management and seamless systems integration

SKANEATELES, N.Y. and HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Keena Healthcare Technology, a full-service healthcare optimization organization, today announces a strategic partnership with Valer, an industry-leading prior authorization technology company. This collaboration will enable healthcare organizations to implement pre-certifications more efficiently, both speeding up and simplifying the process of prior authorization management.

The partnership between Keena and Valer addresses one of the costliest and consistently difficult processes in healthcare: manual prior authorization submissions, status checking, and verification. While this process has historically been time-intensive and error-prone, combining Valer's technology with Keena's systems expertise in system integrations enables seamless, integrated workflows that sync bi-directionally with any EHR. The result is improved staff productivity, increased revenue from fewer claim denials, and ease of implementation.

"We are thrilled to partner with Keena Healthcare Technology to bring best-in-class prior authorization automation to more healthcare providers," states Dr. Steve Kim, Co-Founder and CEO of Valer. "This collaboration underscores our commitment to getting patients the care they need faster and easier. By integrating Valer's HITRUST-certified solution with Keena's systems expertise, we're helping providers and their staff focus on what matters most."

"At Keena, we enable providers and their IT and operational staff to focus on patient care rather than worrying about technology," states Craig Luce, President of Keena Healthcare Technology. "Our new partnership with Valer adds another pathway for us to effectively meet our customers' needs and simplify some of the most complex workflows in their organization. Supplementing Valer's prior authorization solution with our skills and experience in system integration to optimize workflow delivers unmatched value to large physician practices and other healthcare organizations."
