For outpatient practices
Give payer work somewhere to go.
Ellery Health Partners supports independent practices that need reliable administrative capacity without immediately adding another full-time internal role.
Ellery Health Partners may be a fit for practices with:
- Recurring payer-administration workload
- Consistent prior authorization volume
- Insurance verification requirements
- Claims requiring payer follow-up
- Denial and appeal workload
- Credentialing and enrollment activity
- Internal capacity constraints
- Need for defined external workflow ownership
What Ellery Health Partners does not replace.
Ellery Health Partners does not replace your physicians, clinical staff, practice management, coding team, or billing system. We take ownership of defined payer-facing administrative workflows that would otherwise remain on their desks.
Buy the workflow, not another employee.
Ellery Health Partners is a managed service. Your practice defines the payer-administration work you want us to own, and Ellery Health Partners manages the resources, process, follow-up, and reporting required to deliver it.
That means your team does not have to recruit, train, schedule, or supervise another administrative employee simply to move payer work forward.
Support across independent medical specialties.
Ellery Health Partners supports defined payer-administration workflows across a range of independent medical specialties. The service mix depends on practice requirements, payer environment, volume, systems, and workflow complexity.
Prior authorization by specialty:
Prior authorization support covers medical-benefit authorizations. Pharmacy-benefit prior authorizations are outside the current service scope.
Billing and RCM companies can work with Ellery Health Partners through white-label or referral arrangements. See For billing companies.

A defined operating approach
Every Ellery Health Partners engagement is structured around:
- U.S.-based support: Contracted work is performed by personnel located in the United States.
- Assigned personnel: Each engagement is supported by named Ellery Health Partners personnel trained for the payer-administration workflows included in the contracted scope. Work is performed through the practice-approved systems and payer channels required for that engagement after onboarding and access are complete.
- Practice-controlled access: The practice provisions, controls, and can revoke system access.
- Written service scope: Responsibilities, capacity, pricing, and exclusions are documented before service begins.
- Documented activity: Work is recorded in the practice’s authorized system.
- Administrative boundaries: Clinical and coding responsibilities remain with the practice.
- Approved additional work: Services outside the agreed scope require practice approval before they are performed.
Ellery Health Partners does not guarantee payer approval or payer response time.
