Are insurer authorisations handled differently in Valencia?

Location does not change the rule. The term and documents do vary by service: Adeslas publishes 90 days for medical tests, laboratory tests, rehabilitation and psychotherapy, while admissions and interventions require an exact date and a new request if it moves. With MAPFRE, the applicable requirement in the centre agreement governs the case.

Which authorisations weigh most in a Valencia private clinic?

In Valencia, scheduled surgery with admission and rehabilitation by session blocks tend to weigh heavily, alongside MRI and psychotherapy. When surgery and rehab weight is high, per-appointment and per-session traceability is the difference between billing performed activity or reopening each case with the insurer.

How does SaludComply prevent revenue leakage in a Valencia clinic?

SaludComply measures the real portfolio by insurer and category, prepares the queue by expiry date and leaves each request or renewal ready for the billing lead to approve before submission. It prevents authorisations hanging from moved appointments and late block renewals. Estimate the recoverable amount at /diagnostico-autorizaciones, with no patient data.

Private insurer authorisations in Valencia clinics: operational reality

By Andrew Swiler · CEO, SaludComply

CEO of SaludComply. Works on authorization automation for Spanish private healthcare and how the main insurers’ provider portals (Adeslas, Sanitas, ASISA, DKV, MAPFRE) operate. Based in Barcelona.

Rules are national, operations are local

The city does not change authorisation rules, but the type of service does. Adeslas gives medical tests, laboratory tests, rehabilitation and psychotherapy 90-day validity; an admission or intervention is tied to an exact date and must be requested again if rescheduled. MAPFRE requires the clinic to check the service against its provider agreement. In Valencia, insurer mix and the speed at which reception prepares files determine the real workload.

What kind of private clinics there are in Valencia and what they authorise

Valencia and its area concentrate multi-purpose private clinics with operating rooms, specialty centres without admission, rehabilitation and physiotherapy units, plus mental health units. The authorisation categories generating the most volume in a Valencia private clinic are MRI, scheduled surgery with admission, rehabilitation by blocks and psychotherapy. The relative weight of each category and the share of patients per insurer vary by centre and must be measured before designing operations.

Where revenue leaks in a Valencia private clinic

Characteristic leakage is structural and repeats across Spain: hanging authorisations when appointments move, late rehab block renewals, invoices returned for date inconsistency and requests prepared outside the real window for each insurer. In Valencia, where scheduled surgery and rehab block weight tend to be high, per-appointment and per-session traceability is the difference between billing the activity or reopening each case with the insurer.

How SaludComply approaches it in Valencia

SaludComply first measures the actual portfolio composition of the Valencia clinic by insurer and category, and prepares the queue from that baseline. The agent knows the national rules for each insurer and prepares each request or renewal; the clinic billing lead approves before submission to the corresponding portal. Human approval before every submission remains the rule.
