Prior Auth Turnaround Window Lookup
Audit actual complete prior-auth request date against caller independently verified request-class calendar-day response window; no business/holiday inference or authorization guarantee.
Description
Prior-authorization turnaround depends on the complete-request trigger and verified request class.
Prior-authorization turnaround depends on the complete-request trigger and verified request class. Calendar days differ from business days.1
The returned values include Caller prior auth response deadline civil date, Signed days until caller deadline, Caller deadline already passed. The How section below explains the calculation, input rules and interpretation.
When to use Prior Auth Turnaround Window Lookup
Use Prior Auth Turnaround Window Lookup when you need to evaluate the supplied records under the calculation and evidence rules below. No holiday inference, legal response deadline or authorization guarantee is supplied.
Prepare the observed policy, claim or quote evidence and independently verified policy tables. Monetary fields use integer minor units in one currency: for a currency with 100 minor units per major unit, enter 12345 for 123.45. One basis point is 0.01 percentage points, so 10000 basis points represents 100%.
How to use Prior Auth Turnaround Window Lookup and understand its results
- Prepare the observed policy, claim or quote evidence and independently verified policy tables. Monetary fields use integer minor units in one currency: for a currency with 100 minor units per major unit, enter 12345 for 123.45. One basis point is 0.01 percentage points, so 10000 basis points represents 100%.
- Enter observedCompletePriorAuthRequestCivilDate, callerPriorAuthRequestClassIds, callerVerifiedPriorAuthCalendarDayWindows, queryPriorAuthRequestClassId, observedAsOfCivilDate using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
- Read callerPriorAuthResponseDeadlineCivilDate, signedDaysUntilCallerDeadline, callerDeadlineAlreadyPassed. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
- If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type; see rules below | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| observedCompletePriorAuthRequestCivilDate | Observed complete prior auth request civil date | string | Required |
| callerPriorAuthRequestClassIds | Caller prior auth request class ids | list of string | Required |
| callerVerifiedPriorAuthCalendarDayWindows | Caller verified prior auth calendar day windows | list of number | Required |
| queryPriorAuthRequestClassId | Query prior auth request class id | string | Required |
| observedAsOfCivilDate | Observed as of civil date | string | Required |
Enter exact real Gregorian YYYY-MM-DD dates in 1900–2199 for request and as-of, aligned nonempty unique nonblank class IDs and integer windows 0–3660, and an exact query ID. Return generated deadline, signed days remaining and a strictly passed flag; generated dates must remain in the supported years.
deadline=completeRequest+catalogDays; remaining=deadline−asOf; passed=asOf>deadline Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| callerPriorAuthResponseDeadlineCivilDate | Caller prior auth response deadline civil date | string |
| signedDaysUntilCallerDeadline | Signed days until caller deadline | number |
| callerDeadlineAlreadyPassed | Caller deadline already passed | boolean |

}Limitations and assumptions
No holiday inference, legal response deadline or authorization guarantee is supplied.
Numeric inputs, where present, must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Numeric lists are limited to 10,000 entries; string lists to 128 strings of at most 128 characters each. The rules above may impose smaller limits. Extremely large text inputs are rejected. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors. A successfully returned false flag is an evaluated outcome; its meaning is explained above.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use Proof Of Loss Deadline Days Lookup: Proof-of-loss timing begins at an independently established trigger. A class-specific calendar-day window gives a deadline and signed time remaining. For a complementary task, use Appeal Deadline Days From Denial Lookup: An appeal filing window starts from the independently established appealable denial date. It differs from a response deadline.
