The hidden cost of prior auth

How much is prior authorization really costing you?

Each authorization can take 20 to 45 minutes of staff time. Delays push patients to reschedule or go elsewhere, and missed authorizations turn into denials that are hard to overturn.

Many practices accept this as normal. It doesn’t have to be. Our team takes over the process and focuses on getting approvals, not just submitting requests.

What our clients say

Feedback from physicians and practice managers who handed their billing to us.

Dr. Maria R. Family Medicine, Tampa FL

Within three months our denial rate dropped noticeably and payments started arriving on a predictable schedule. The team explains every report in plain terms.

James T. Practice Manager, Orthopedic Group

Their prior authorization staff are fast and thorough. When a payer asks for more documentation, they handle it before I even have to ask.

Dr. Sanjay K. Cardiology, Houston TX

We had years of aged A/R we had written off mentally. Leading Edge recovered a large share of it and set up a process so it doesn't pile up again.

Lauren P. LCSW, Behavioral Health Practice

Credentialing used to take me months. They got me in-network with four payers and keep my CAQH updated without reminders from me.

Dr. David A. Urgent Care, Phoenix AZ

Responsive, accurate and easy to reach. Our account manager knows our clinic as well as our own front desk does.
