Medications that need prior authorization
Many newer diabetes and weight-management drugs need prior authorization, and each payer asks for different supporting history.
Endocrinology is a specialty of trends: A1c over time, thyroid levels, glucose data. XEHR keeps results and medications in view and moves each visit to a clean claim.
Diabetes follow-up; reviewing glucose monitor data.
E11.65 Type 2 diabetes with hyperglycemia
Many newer diabetes and weight-management drugs need prior authorization, and each payer asks for different supporting history.
Monitor data interpretation is billable on its own schedule, but only when the review is documented and the frequency rules are met.
Decisions depend on months of results. Hunting through scanned reports slows every visit.
Endocrinology is mostly office-based and highly longitudinal: the same patients return every three to six months with lab work and device data in between. Visits are billed on the professional claim, with diabetes education, glucose monitor review and in-office procedures such as thyroid biopsies adding services to the same date. Medication approvals for insulin pumps, sensors and injectable therapies take a large share of staff time.
| E11.65 | Type 2 diabetes mellitus with hyperglycemia |
| E10.9 | Type 1 diabetes mellitus without complications |
| E03.9 | Hypothyroidism, unspecified |
| E05.90 | Thyrotoxicosis, unspecified without thyrotoxic crisis or storm |
| E21.0 | Primary hyperparathyroidism |
| M81.0 | Age-related osteoporosis without current pathological fracture |
Examples only. The provider chooses the code that matches the documented diagnosis, and XEHR checks it against the note and the payer's rules before the claim goes out.
Results ordered at the last visit are in the chart and trended, so the conversation starts with the numbers instead of a search.
Glucose monitor and pump summaries are attached to the visit, and the review is documented as part of the note.
Prescriptions go out electronically; for therapies that need prior authorization the request is prepared from the chart for staff to send.
The visit, any monitor interpretation and any in-office procedure go on one checked claim, and the next lab order is ready for the return visit.

XEHR is an agentic EHR: AI agents do the administrative work around every endocrinology visit, and your team approves what matters. How agentic AI works
Ask every vendor, including us. The answers show whether a system was built for endocrinology work or only adapted to it.
Ask us on a demoYes. The request is prepared from the patient history and results, and your staff reviews and submits it.
Yes. Results are kept in the chart and can be reviewed over time.
Yes. Results are trended in the chart so A1c, thyroid and calcium values can be read over time at each visit.
Yes. Approvals are tracked with their end dates, so renewals can be started before a patient’s therapy lapses.
Yes. Approvals are tracked with end dates so renewals can start before a therapy lapses.
Yes. Reports received are filed to the patient record and reviewed in the visit note.
Pricing is published: $189 per provider per month for the Clinical plan, $449 per provider per month for the Practice Suite with billing, or 2.5% of collections for RCM as a Service. Month-to-month, with a BAA on every plan. See pricing.
