Configure the Partial Request Outcome for Authorization Requests

The outcomes of authorization requests vary depending on factors such as the patient’s member plans or the payer’s clinical review guidelines. To help your authorization coordinators successfully manage the authorization request process, define a request outcome named Partial. The other required outcomes, Queued, Error, and Complete, are available by default.
