The True Cost of
Prior Authorization

Prior auth drains labor, delays treatment, and slows reimbursement.
hidalga™ reduces manual work, lifts first-pass approvals, and shortens days-to-cash so clinics protect revenue and plan with confidence.

Every stalled or pended prior auth pushes revenue further out.

  • Hours become cost.
    Staff spend large blocks of time on calls, corrections, and appeals.
  • Delays create losses.
    Denials, abandoned plans, and missed starts cut margins and disrupt cash flow.

Financial gains

Fewer denials. Stronger margins.
Policy-aware submissions and payer-specific justification increase first-pass approvals and reduce write-offs.

Faster cycles. Lower DSO.
Live status, automated routing, and escalations move prior auths to decision quickly.

Less manual rework. Lower cost per auth.
Prefilled forms, missing-data checks, and payer routing reduce manual steps and increase team capacity.
