By April 18, 2025: Billing and authorization staff must review the quick reference guide and tutorial video for the new Provider OnLine system features. Update workflow procedures to utilize the enhanced authorization entry interface and take advantage of the new 'My Recent Authorizations' feature for tracking recent submissions.
