About - Hidalga Technologies

Saving Time in the Fight for Life

In oncology, patients can’t afford delays—and neither can clinics. Yet, prior authorization remains the key bottleneck in the revenue cycle, delaying high-cost, high-urgency treatments. Hidalga Technologies was founded to solve this problem.

hidalga automates the administrative workflows behind prior authorization, so providers can spend less time on paperwork and more time on patient care.

Our Mission

To eliminate administrative friction in specialty clinics—starting with oncology—by automating prior authorization with intelligent tools that support faster, more accurate, and more reliable care delivery.

Our Vision

A future where no patient’s treatment is delayed by paperwork.
A healthcare system where operational teams are equipped with smart tools, and chronic disease no longer means chronic inefficiency.

Workflow Integrated Automated prior authorization submissions

Real-time status tracking and error reduction

Configurable templates for payer-specific requirements

Secure API integrations and audit logs for compliance
