Healthcare Authorization Academy

The Healthcare Authorization Academy combines 30 days of in-person instruction with a two-week apprenticeship on Advantum’s Prior Authorization team in Hyderabad. Top graduates move into open roles on a team that is actively hiring.

The Healthcare Authorization Academy is an accredited training program based at Advantum’s Hyderabad office. It is built in two parts: 30 days of full-time in-person instruction followed by a two-week apprenticeship with Advantum’s Prior Authorization team, working live U.S. client cases under guidance.

Trainees receive a paid stipend throughout the program and earn a recognized certification on completion. Advantum’s Prior Authorization team is actively hiring, and top graduates are evaluated for open positions.

The curriculum covers what the Prior Authorization team does for U.S. clients every day.
Graduates can:

• Navigate the U.S. healthcare system and the structure of commercial and government payer plans
• Process a prior authorization request from intake to determination
• Read clinical documentation against payer medical necessity criteria
• Apply medical terminology, procedure codes and billing fundamentals to authorization decisions
• Communicate with payers and providers on U.S. business hours

Prior authorization is one of the highest-volume specialties in U.S. healthcare RCM, and the foundational training transfers across the sector. The credential is recognized at Advantum and by other healthcare service providers operating in India.

Most healthcare training courses end at the classroom door. The Authorization Academy doesn’t. That difference shows up in three ways.

1. 1. Classroom plus apprenticeship
      The final two weeks of the program place trainees on the floor with Advantum’s Prior Authorization team, working real U.S. client cases under guidance. Classroom learning gets tested against live workflow before you finish.
   2. Paid from day one
      Participants receive a stipend throughout the program. No upfront cost, and no need to choose between training and earning.
   3. A direct path to hiring
      Advantum’s Prior Authorization team is actively hiring, and top graduates are evaluated for open positions on completion. The credential also transfers across the sector if you choose a different employer.

The Academy is built for candidates who want to start a career in U.S. healthcare RCM and can commit to on-site work in Hyderabad on U.S. business hours. Applicants should have:

• Strong organization skills
• English-speaking proficiency
• Prior work experience in the healthcare sector
• Availability for daytime shifts aligned with U.S. business hours, on-site in Hyderabad
