About Availity
What Availity Does
Availity is a healthcare intelligence network that processes over half of U.S. healthcare transactions. It connects providers, payers, and health information technology companies (HITs) through a secure, real-time network. The platform focuses on eligibility verification, authorizations, claims management, and payment workflows, unifying administrative, clinical, and financial data to streamline operations.
The Problem It Solves
Healthcare organizations face complex, fragmented workflows that cause denials, write-offs, and labor burnout. Availity tackles this by offering a neutral, centralized network that integrates with existing systems, provides API-first connectivity, and automates payer-provider interactions. It helps reduce rework, improve accuracy, and accelerate cash flow.
Who It Is For
Availity is designed for healthcare providers (hospitals, clinics, practices), payers (insurance companies), and HIT vendors (software companies building healthcare solutions). It is best for organizations seeking national-scale connectivity and a reliable clearinghouse. It may not be suitable for individual patients or one-off claims processing.
Real Use Cases
Providers use Availity to check patient eligibility in real-time before appointments, submit clean claims, and track denials. Payers leverage it to engage providers digitally and improve network insights. HITs integrate Availity's APIs to embed eligibility or claim status into their software, scaling innovation across healthcare.
