Behavioral health authorizations under control
Ritten’s utilization review and authorization tools keep all your behavioral health authorizations in one place so you can prevent denials, stay ahead of expirations, and protect revenue.
How does Ritten manage behavioral health authorizations?
Authorizations shouldn’t live in email threads, PDFs, or staff memory. Ritten’s Utilization Review tools bring auth tracking into the same system where you schedule, document, and bill.
- Authorizations tied to payers and codes: Ritten tracks all authorizations. The appropriate auth automatically populates on claims with the correct payer and CPT code.
- Track expirations and remaining units: Built-in tracking for expiring and depleting authorizations let you know when it's time to request more sessions.
- Program-aware: Support for outpatient, IOP, PHP, residential, and SUD authorizations, including different limits and requirements by CPT code
Fewer authorization related denials, more predictable reimbursement
With authorizations visible in the same place as your encounters and claims, behavioral health teams can:
- See at a glance which clients are missing auths or are nearing limits.
- Plan ahead for utilization review calls and documentation.
- Avoid billing sessions that will be denied for lack of authorization.
- Keep clinicians focused on care while admin staff manage payer rules.
The result: fewer surprise denials, smoother utilization review conversations, and more predictable cash flow.
Authorizations aligned with documentation and payer rules
Linking authorizations to specific services and payers makes it easier to show:
- That billed services match approved services.
- That auth limits and renewal dates are being respected.
- That treatment decisions are documented and connected to payer authorizations.
This keeps you better prepared for audits and payer reviews while reducing the administrative burden on your clinical team.
