Hindsait Approved for the CMS Health Tech Ecosystem for Electronic Prior Authorization
Purpose-built clinical AI company joins CMS initiative to modernize prior authorization ahead of 2027 interoperability requirements
HACKENSACK, N.J., Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Hindsait, Inc., a healthcare Intelligence company specializing in clinical natural language processing and prior authorization technology, today announced it has been approved for the Electronic Prior Authorization category within the CMS Health Tech Ecosystem.
The milestone positions Hindsait among the organizations working with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to modernize prior authorization ahead of the CMS Interoperability and Prior Authorization Final Rule (CMS-0057-F), which takes effect in 2027. The Ecosystem's Electronic Prior Authorization effort brings together payers, providers, EHR vendors, and digital health developers to move prior authorization toward interoperable, end-to-end workflows.
"Prior authorization has been one of the most persistent points of friction in American healthcare," said Pinaki Dasgupta, Founder and CEO of Hindsait. "Being recognized within the CMS Health Tech Ecosystem affirms the approach we've taken for more than a decade: using AI to augment clinical judgment, not replace it, so determinations are faster, more consistent, and fully auditable."
Hindsait's platform is live in production at Wisconsin Physicians Service (WPS), a leading Medicare Administrative Contractor, supporting Medicare Part A and Part B determinations, where it demonstrated a 53 percent reduction in prior authorization processing time, results published in a joint white paper with WPS Health.
Hindsait is not an LLM wrapper. Its core engine runs on purpose-built clinical models trained on more than 100 million real PHI records from across the U.S. healthcare system, not general web text. Protected health information stays within a secured, client-controlled U.S. environment, giving payers forecastable cost and auditable determinations rather than a black box.
Hindsait has operated prior authorization technology in production for over a decade. The company is HITRUST CSF and SOC 2 Type II audited and was named a Representative Vendor in a 2026 Gartner report on Intelligent Prior Authorization.
