Informed decisions start with the right information
Your team reviews prior authorizations every day, often with incomplete or unstructured documentation for members with complex needs. Periscope delivers structured, objective clinical reports that reduce review time and support confident, informed decisions.
How a Periscope assessment works
Request submitted
The health plan submits a case through the Periscope HIPAA-compliant portal. Secure and straightforward, with automation options available to streamline your workflow.

Clinician assigned
A licensed PT, OT, or RN is matched to the case and reaches out to schedule an in-home visit at a time convenient for the member.
In-home assessment
A licensed clinician visits the member at home to observe mobility, environmental factors, daily function and safety.

Care manager
Periscope assessments reveal what is happening in the member’s environment, often surfacing needs that documentation alone would miss.
Health Plan executive
A trusted clinical partner with no stake in the outcome. Objective assessments that support appropriate resource allocation and align spending with actual member needs across markets.

Periscope delivers objective, clinically grounded assessments that inform health plan decisions. This clear separation ensures our findings remain unbiased and focused solely on the member needs.
