Summary
Availity Essentials has launched Quick Claims, a new feature that streamlines professional claims submission using reusable claim templates. This tool is designed to reduce repetitive data entry and improve administrative efficiency, particularly for providers who submit similar claim types routinely. The feature became available on August 6, 2026.
Action Required
By September 15, 2026: Billing team should log into Availity Essentials and explore the Quick Claims feature located under Claims & Payments > Claims > Quick Claims. Review the Quick Claims training demo and overview documentation at the provided resource link to understand eligibility requirements and functionality. Identify which claim types your practice routinely submits (e.g., podiatry, chiropractic, therapy services) and evaluate whether creating reusable templates will improve workflow efficiency. No immediate compliance action is required, but early adoption is recommended to realize administrative time savings.
