Automated PT Insurance Authorization Expiry Tracker
Every morning, WebRun opens Prompt EMR, reviews every active insurance authorization, flags those expiring in the next 7 days, drafts a renewal request letter for your biller to review, and posts a prioritized alert list to the front-desk Slack channel so nothing slips through.
How can I automatically track and renew expiring PT insurance authorizations?
Every morning, WebRun opens Prompt EMR, identifies every insurance authorization expiring within 7 days, and drafts a renewal request letter in Gmail for the billing team to review and submit. A prioritized Slack alert keeps front-desk and billing staff informed, so no PT visit is disrupted by a lapsed authorization.
- No authorization expires without advance notice and a drafted renewal request
- Billing staff start the day with a prioritized renewals list
- No renewal goes to a payer without staff review
Built for physical therapy billers · PT front-desk staff · outpatient PT clinic managers · physical therapy practices

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it submit renewal requests to payers automatically?
No. WebRun drafts every renewal request in Gmail and leaves it unsent for your biller to review before submitting. No external communication goes out without human sign-off.
How far in advance does it flag expiring authorizations?
It flags authorizations expiring within the next 7 days by default. You can adjust the look-ahead window to match your payer's typical turnaround time.
What about authorizations that are already being renewed?
It reads the live authorization status in Prompt EMR each run, so cases already marked as renewal-in-progress are skipped to avoid duplicate drafts.
