How long is an Adeslas authorisation valid?

The published general validity is 30 calendar days from the date indicated on the request, unless the document specifies otherwise. If the procedure is delayed beyond that window, the clinic should review the applicable channel and resubmit according to its agreement with Adeslas. The agent flags pending authorisations before they expire.

Which channel does SaludComply use to submit Adeslas authorisations?

The exact public URL of the Adeslas professional portal is not listed in the public sources reviewed. SaludComply prepares documentation from the record, checks known Adeslas rules and holds every action for human approval before the clinic uses its enabled channel.

Can the patient request the authorisation with a photo of the prescription?

Adeslas allows certain authorisations to be requested from the customer area by attaching a photo of the prescription. That path is convenient for the patient but leaves the clinic without visibility on status or control of the documents sent. SaludComply keeps the request inside the clinical workflow so the practice preserves traceability and can bill the service.

Why does Adeslas deny authorisations more often?

The most common cross-insurer reasons are missing documents, wrong procedure code, weak clinical justification, procedure outside coverage and tariff mismatch. The agent reviews these points before sending and asks for human validation when it flags risk. Rules per procedure depend on the agreement signed with the centre.

Adeslas prior authorization for clinics: validity, documents and tracking

Adeslas publishes 90-day validity for medical tests, analyses, rehabilitation and psychotherapy. Admissions and interventions require an exact date and a new request if it changes. Clinics should link the validity stated on each authorization to the appointment and invoice.

Data to control in each Adeslas authorization

Track prescription, site, exact date where required, insured member, status, authorization number and stated validity. Validity tracking only helps if reception can see which authorizations expire before the appointment.

Where the clinic gap sits

The research did not verify a public Adeslas professional portal for clinics to submit authorizations on the patient’s behalf. The clinic can still control Adeslas authorizations by status, appointment and expiry.

How SaludComply handles it

SaludComply does not need to invent Adeslas rules. It starts by measuring monthly Adeslas volume, denials, expiries and approved-but-unbilled cases. From there, the agent prioritizes review, renewal and corrected resubmission.
