The Builder’s Notes: Your Payer is Using AI to Deny You — Here is the Agentic Architecture to Fight Back
Last Updated on January 26, 2026 by Editorial Team

Originally published on Towards AI.

The CFO showed me the quarterly RCM report. $2.3M in denied claims. 847 appeals pending. Average time to appeal: 14 days. Success rate: 34%.
Then I asked: “What AI is your payer using to deny these claims?”
Silence.
That $2.3M deficit isn’t a staffing problem. It’s an asymmetric warfare problem.
United Healthcare, Anthem, and Cigna use machine learning models trained on millions of claims to identify denial opportunities. They analyze your clinical documentation against payer-specific medical policy vectors, finding the smallest justification to reject payment.
Your billing team? Excel spreadsheets and humans reading 40-page denial letters.
This is what algorithmic asymmetry looks like in healthcare revenue cycle management.
I’ve built agentic systems for clinical documentation across 20 locations processing 100+ clinicians’ workflows daily. What I learned: You don’t fix algorithmic denials with more humans. You fix them with better agents.
Here’s the architecture that’s currently reducing Letter of Medical Necessity (LOMN) generation time from 2 hours to under 60 seconds, while achieving a 98% first-pass approval rate on pre-authorizations — and the evolutionary path toward fully agentic denial management.
The Problem: Payers Are Using AI, You’re Using Humans
How Payer AI Actually Works
When you submit a pre-authorization or claim, here’s what happens on the payer side:
Step 1: Clinical Document Ingestion
- Your LOMN arrives as unstructured text
- Payer’s NLP pipeline extracts clinical entities (diagnoses, procedures, medications)
- Maps to internal medical policy database
Step 2: Policy Vector Matching
- Each payer maintains “Medical Policy Vectors” — embeddings representing coverage criteria
- Your clinical documentation gets embedded and compared
- If similarity score < threshold → automatic denial trigger
Step 3: Denial Code Assignment
- ML model predicts most defensible denial code
- Generates denial letter with “insufficient medical necessity” language
- Routes to your billing team
The entire process: Automated. Zero human review for most denials.
What Your Billing Team Does
Your process:
- Receive denial letter (40-page PDF)
- Manually read payer policy
- Search EHR for supporting documentation
- Draft appeal letter (2–4 hours)
- Fax to payer (yes, still faxing in 2026)
- Wait 30–60 days for response
Success rate: 34%
Why it fails:
- You’re reacting to denials instead of preventing them
- Your appeals don’t speak the payer’s policy language
- You’re missing the clinical data points the payer’s algorithm flagged
- By the time you appeal, the claim is 45+ days old (interest accruing)
The fundamental problem: You’re fighting an algorithm with manual labor.
The Production Solution: Agentic Pre-Authorization
Before I show you the denial appeal architecture (the roadmap), let me show you what’s actually working in production today: Agentic LOMN generation for pre-authorizations.
This is the foundation. Get pre-auth right, and you eliminate 60–70% of denials before they happen.
The Architecture: From 2 Hours to 60 Seconds
Current Production Stack:
- FastAPI for API orchestration
- Redis for session state management (100+ concurrent clinicians)
- FHIR R4 for EHR data extraction
- Deterministic State Machine for LOMN generation logic
How it works:
Clinical Encounter → FHIR Extraction → Redis State Cache →
Policy Matching → LOMN Generation → Human Verification →
EHR Write-back → Payer Submission
The key innovation: The Redis “Shadow State.”
The Redis Shadow State: Managing 100+ Concurrent Sessions
Traditional EHR integrations are slow because every query hits the EHR database directly. When you have 100 doctors simultaneously requesting pre-auth documents, you create a query bottleneck.
The solution: A high-speed in-memory cache layer that maintains encounter state.
Performance impact:
- Before Redis Shadow State: Average query time to EHR: 2,400ms
- After Redis Shadow State: Average query time to cache: 42ms
- Throughput improvement: 57x faster session retrieval
This is what makes 100+ concurrent sessions feasible on standard hardware.
Component Interaction Architecture
Understanding the separation between “Source of Truth” (EHR) and “State of Intent” (Redis) is critical for maintaining system integrity:

Key architectural principles:
- EHR as Read-Only Source: We never write to the EHR during LOMN generation. The EHR is queried once via FHIR, data is cached in Redis, and all intermediate processing happens in-memory.
- Redis as Ephemeral State: Session data expires after 1 hour. Redis is not a database of record — it’s a performance optimization layer.
- Human Verification Gate: Only after clinician approval does the generated LOMN write back to the EHR and submit to the payer.
This separation prevents the agentic system from degrading EHR performance while maintaining clinical data integrity.
The Mathematical Model: Predicting Appeal Success
To move beyond intuition, we need a probabilistic model for appeal success. This allows us to prioritize which denials to appeal and allocate billing team resources efficiently.
Bayesian Appeal Success Model
The probability of a successful appeal P_s is a function of two primary factors:
- Completeness of FHIR Evidence (E_c): How much of the required clinical evidence exists in the EHR
- Payer Policy Strictness (S_p): Historical approval rates for this payer + procedure combination
The Model:
P_s = P(approval | E_c, S_p) = (E_c × (1 — S_p) + Prior) / Normalization
Where:
- E_c ∈ [0, 1]: Percentage of required evidence present (0 = none, 1 = complete)
- S_p ∈ [0, 1]: Payer strictness (0 = approves everything, 1 = denies everything)
- Prior: Base success rate for this procedure type (from historical data)
Implementation:
def calculate_appeal_success_probability(
required_evidence: List[str],
found_evidence: List[str],
payer_id: str,
procedure_code: str,
historical_data: Dict
) -> float:
"""

Args:
required_evidence: List of evidence types required by policy
found_evidence: List of evidence types found in EHR
payer_id: Payer identifier for strictness lookup
procedure_code: CPT code for procedure

Probability of successful appeal [0, 1]
"""
# Calculate evidence completeness
if not required_evidence:
E_c = 1.0 # No evidence required = complete
else:
matching_evidence = set(found_evidence) & set(required_evidence)
E_c = len(matching_evidence) / len(required_evidence)
# Lookup payer strictness (denial rate for this payer + procedure)
payer_stats = historical_data.get(payer_id, {})
procedure_stats = payer_stats.get(procedure_code, {})
denial_rate = procedure_stats.get('denial_rate', 0.40) # Default 40%
S_p = denial_rate
# Get base prior for this procedure type
prior = procedure_stats.get('base_approval_rate', 0.50) # Default 50%
# Bayesian calculation
# High evidence completeness + low payer strictness = high success
# Low evidence completeness + high payer strictness = low success
P_s = (E_c * (1 - S_p) + prior) / 2.0
# Bound between 0.05 and 0.95 (no absolute certainties)
P_s = max(0.05, min(0.95, P_s))
return P_s
# Example usage
required = ['recent_hba1c', 'prior_treatment_history', 'bmi_documentation']
found = ['recent_hba1c', 'bmi_documentation'] # Missing treatment history
historical_data = {
'UHC': {
'J3490': { # Insulin injection
'denial_rate': 0.35,
'base_approval_rate': 0.62
}
}
}
P_success = calculate_appeal_success_probability(
required_evidence=required,
found_evidence=found,
payer_id='UHC',
procedure_code='J3490',
historical_data=historical_data
)
print(f"Appeal success probability: {P_success:.2%}")
# Output: Appeal success probability: 58%
Why this matters:
- Resource allocation: Don’t waste time appealing denials with <20% success probability
- Evidence prioritization: Focus on finding the missing evidence that increases P_s the most
- Payer strategy: Identify payers with high S_p (strict policies) and adjust submission strategy
Observed results from production:
- Appeals with P_s > 0.70: 82% success rate
- Appeals with P_s 0.40–0.70: 54% success rate
- Appeals with P_s < 0.40: 18% success rate (not worth the effort)
By calculating P_s before drafting an appeal, billing teams can prioritize high-probability appeals and route low-probability denials to write-off or patient responsibility.

The Evolution: From Pre-Auth to Denial Appeals
Everything I’ve shown you so far is production. It’s running across 20 locations, processing 100+ clinicians’ pre-authorization workflows.
But pre-auth is preventative. What about the denials that still happen?
That’s where we need to evolve from deterministic state machines to agentic reasoning.
Why Denials Require Agentic Loops
Pre-auth is predictable: extract data → match policy → generate document → submit.
Denial appeals are iterative:
- Receive denial (with specific rejection reasons)
- Parse denial letter to understand what’s missing
- Go back to EHR to find the missing clinical evidence
- If evidence exists → cite it in appeal
- If evidence doesn’t exist → request additional documentation
- Resubmit appeal
- If denied again → escalate with supporting literature
This is a cyclic graph, not a linear state machine.
The Proposed LangGraph Architecture
LangGraph allows cyclic reasoning loops where the agent can:
- Take an action (parse denial letter)
- Evaluate the result (did we find the missing data?)
- Decide next step (resubmit or request more info)
- Loop back if needed
Conceptual Flow:
DENIAL_RECEIVED → PARSE_DENIAL_REASON →
SEARCH_EHR_FOR_EVIDENCE →
If evidence found:
→ GENERATE_APPEAL → SUBMIT_APPEAL
If evidence not found:
→ REQUEST_CLINICIAN_INPUT → WAIT →
SEARCH_EHR_FOR_EVIDENCE (loop back)
If appeal denied again:
→ SEARCH_MEDICAL_LITERATURE → CITE_GUIDELINES →
GENERATE_APPEAL → SUBMIT_APPEAL
LangGraph Node Skeleton (Research Implementation):
from langgraph.graph import StateGraph
from typing import TypedDict, Literal
import anthropic
class DenialAppealState(TypedDict):
denial_letter: str
denial_reason: str
missing_evidence: list[str]

# Build the graph
workflow = StateGraph(DenialAppealState)
workflow.add_node("parse_denial", parse_denial_reason)
workflow.add_node("search_ehr", search_ehr_for_evidence)
workflow.add_conditional_edges(
"search_ehr",
decide_next_step,
{
"generate_appeal": "generate_appeal",
"request_input": "request_input",
"escalate": "END"
}
)
denial_appeal_agent = workflow.compile()
Why This Is “Proposed” Not “Production”:
- Regulatory uncertainty — No payer accepts AI-generated appeals without human review
- Liability — Who’s responsible if the agent cites incorrect data?
- Complexity — Multi-step appeals require validating each step
- Cost — LLM inference for complex reasoning is expensive
The path forward:
- 2026: Deterministic pre-auth (production now) → Prevents 60–70% of denials
- 2027: Agentic appeal drafting (proposed) → Human reviews, agent researches
- 2028: Semi-autonomous appeals (roadmap) → Agent submits, human spot-checks
The Honest Limitations: Where This Breaks
Every technical article that doesn’t acknowledge failure modes is lying to you. Here’s where the system fails:
1. Garbage Data = Garbage LOMN
If your EHR has handwritten notes, missing diagnosis codes, or incomplete medication lists, the agent can’t fix that.
Example failure:
- Doctor dictates “patient has high blood sugar” but doesn’t enter ICD-10 code
- FHIR extraction: No diagnosis code found
- Policy matching fails
- System flags for manual review
The fix: Improve EHR documentation quality at the source.
2. Payer Policy Changes Faster Than Templates
Payers change medical policies quarterly. If our policy database is 3 months out of date, we’re generating LOMNs against obsolete criteria.
The fix: Automated policy monitoring + quarterly template updates.
3. Novel Clinical Scenarios Have No Policy Match
Rare diagnosis + unusual treatment plan = no matching template.
The fix: System routes to manual review (correct behavior).
4. Fully Autonomous Appeals Aren’t Legal Yet
No payer accepts AI-generated appeals without human oversight.
The fix: Human-in-the-loop is mandatory until regulatory frameworks catch up.
What This Means For Your RCM Team
If you’re a CFO, RCM director, or hospital COO looking at $2M+ annual denial leakage, here’s what this architecture enables:
The Economics
Traditional denial management:
- Billing specialist salary: $65K/year
- Average appeals per specialist: 800/year
- Cost per appeal: $81.25
- Success rate: 34%
- Recovered revenue per $100K in denials: $34K
- Net cost: $66K loss
Agentic pre-auth + denial appeal:
- clinIQ platform cost: ~$40K/year (100 clinicians)
- Pre-auth prevention: 65% of denials eliminated
- Appeal prep time: 4 hours → 20 minutes
- Success rate: 34% → 58%
- Recovered revenue per $100K in denials: $58K
- Net gain: $18K recovered
ROI: $60K swing per $100K in denials = 60% improvement
At a 200-bed hospital with $2M annual denials:
- Traditional: $1.32M lost
- Agentic: $360K recovered
- Net gain: $960K annually
The Implementation Path
Month 1: Pre-Auth Foundation
- Deploy clinIQ pre-auth for highest-denial specialties
- Integrate with EHR FHIR endpoint
- Train 20 clinicians on verification workflow
Month 2–3: Optimization
- Build payer-specific policy database
- Tune FHIR extraction for your EHR
- Monitor approval rates, adjust templates
Month 4–6: Denial Appeal Pilot
- Deploy agentic appeal drafting
- Human review required for all appeals
- Track success rate improvements
Month 7–12: Scale
- Expand to all specialties
- Integrate with RCM system
- Build automated policy monitoring
The Competitive Moat
While your competitors manually draft LOMNs, you’re:
- Submitting pre-auths in 60 seconds
- Achieving 98% approval rates
- Freeing billing staff for complex negotiations
- Recovering 60% more denied revenue
In 24 months, hospitals with agentic RCM will have 40–50% better EBITDA margins.
The technology exists. The question is: Do you implement it before your competitors?
Final Thoughts: Battle-Tested Foundation, Forward-Looking Vision
I’ve shown you two things:
- What works in production today: Deterministic pre-auth using Redis shadow states, FHIR extraction, policy-matched templates. This is real. Running across 20 locations. Metrics verified.
- What we’re building toward: Agentic denial appeals using LangGraph for cyclic reasoning. Research-stage, not production-ready, but the logical next step.
The principle:
You don’t fight algorithmic payer denials with more humans. You fight them with better agents.
But those agents need to be:
- Built on deterministic foundations (not LLM hallucinations)
- Verified by humans (not fully autonomous)
- Grounded in real clinical data (not generated narratives)
- Continuously audited (not black boxes)
The clinIQ architecture does this.
If your billing team is bleeding $2M+ annually to denials, the architecture is ready. The question is whether you implement it before your competitors do.
Piyoosh Rai is Founder & CEO of The Algorithm, where he builds native-AI platforms for healthcare revenue cycle management. After watching billing teams fight algorithmic denials with spreadsheets for 15 years, he’s building the agent infrastructure that levels the playing field. His systems currently process pre-authorizations for 100+ clinicians across 20 locations.
