Eligibility and benefits verification


Patient insurance eligibility and benefits verification is the first and most important step in the billing process. That means your front office has to obtain accurately information from patient. It’s important to determining each patient’s insurance eligibility, including:

  • coinsurance or copay,
    • deductible,
  • benefits cap,
    • Payer information,
  • whether the payer requires specialized forms or additional documentation, and
  • Whether the payer requires authorization. Some payers will retroactively authorize services, but for those that don’t, you need authorization before you begin providing services.
