WHY VERIFICATION MATTERS

Coverage uncertainty becomes a billing problem later

Eligibility is only one front-end step, but incomplete checks can affect patient conversations, authorization work and downstream claim handling.

Inactive coverage

Outdated or incomplete policy information can leave the planned visit without a usable coverage response.

Unknown patient cost

Missing copay, coinsurance or deductible details make pre-visit financial conversations harder.

Missed payer requirements

Referral or authorization indicators need a separate action—not a note that remains in the queue.

BEFORE THE VISIT

Six Verification Workstreams. One Actionable Result.

The fields depend on the payer, plan, service and information available. Each result is documented in the agreed destination for the teams that need it.

Appointment Intake

Upcoming visits, patient demographics, payer details and planned services enter the queue.

Active Coverage

Policy status, effective dates and termination information are checked.

Benefit Details

Copay, coinsurance, deductible, service benefits and network details are reviewed.

COB Review

Primary and secondary coverage information is recorded when available.

Requirement Check

Referral or prior-authorization indicators are identified for the proper owner.

Verification identifies coverage

Eligibility checks answer whether a plan is active and what available benefit information applies. A coverage response is not a guarantee of payment.

Patient responsibility, network details and service-specific benefits remain subject to payer rules, the claim and adjudication.

Authorization confirms approval

Prior authorization is a separate workflow for payer approval of a planned service. It can require clinical documentation, submission, tracking and validity details.

Keeping both workflows separate prevents an eligibility response from being mistaken for authorization.
