Two ways to pay for language access.

The status quo: pay by the minute

  • The meter runs through hold time, pauses, and small talk — every minute bills at the same rate.
  • Costs rise with every new patient, so the budget is a guess that gets worse as access improves.
  • When every minute is billed, staff think twice before calling an interpreter at all.

76% of ER interpreter encounters fall back on family or staff instead. Ngai et al., Annals of Emergency Medicine, 2016

With Opalite: pay for access

  • A flat, predictable rate scoped to your deployment — sites, departments, or overall usage — and shaped around how language access is budgeted today.
  • 150+ languages and dialects, Guardian monitoring, human oversight, and EHR documentation included.
  • No hardware to purchase: Opalite runs on the phones, tablets, and computers your teams already carry.
  • A BAA with every customer, SOC 2 Type II attested controls, and HIPAA-grade safeguards — included, not add-ons.

The return shows up on both sides of the ledger.

Lower interpretation costs are only the visible half. The operational half — shorter visits, fewer readmissions — is where the ROI compounds.

Pricing FAQ

No. Opalite is a flat, predictable rate rather than a per-minute meter, so costs don't climb with every encounter and staff never have to ration language access by the minute.
