Get Started
Onboarding
Complete setup guide to get your Akomi account ready in minutes. Provide credentials for your EMR and insurance portals to start automating prior authorizations.
Akomi submits your prior authorizations through the same portals that your staff uses today, just like a human would. Akomi also accesses your EMR in the same way a human would to collect the necessary demographic and clinical information. For this reason, Akomi requires login credentials for each of your portals and your EHR.
If you’re registering with Evolent for the first time, follow these steps:
Someone from Akomi’s customer success team can collect credentials from you, or you can input them into your Akomi account yourself.Please use the email and phone number provided by Akomi for all account creation.
