What Is Prior Authorization in Healthcare?

Prior authorization (PA) is a requirement from insurers that providers must obtain pre-approval before delivering certain services or procedures. Without an approved PA on file, the insurer can deny the claim entirely.

According to the AMA, physicians and staff spend an average of 14 hours per week managing prior authorizations.

75% of PA-related denials are never appealed — that's recoverable revenue being quietly written off every month. Edge PA stops the problem before it starts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What payers does Edge PA connect to?
Edge PA connects to 1,100+ payers nationwide including Medicare, Medicaid, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Humana, and hundreds of regional and specialty payers.

Manual tracking relies on staff checking portals and flagging expirations manually. Edge PA does all of this automatically — checking status across all payers simultaneously and verifying PA coverage before every claim submission.

Yes. Edge PA's pre-submission verification checks every claim for a valid, non-expired authorization before it reaches the payer. Claims missing PA are held for review — stopping the denial before it happens.
How long does implementation take?
Most practices are live within 30 days. Our onboarding team handles all technical setup — your team just logs into the dashboard and starts tracking authorizations immediately.
Does Edge PA work for specialty practices with high PA volumes?
Yes. Edge PA is built for high-volume environments like cardiology, orthopedics, and oncology where nearly every procedure requires authorization.
