Frequently Asked Questions
What insurance information is returned when coverage is found?
When active coverage is identified, the plan type, member ID, and MBI will appear. High-level benefit data may also appear.
Are there any payers you cannot verify coverage against, or for which a Subscriber ID is required?
The software makes logical deductions to find insurance for a patient based on the patient and provider information. Some payers are harder to locate due to the fact they require a Subscriber ID.
What is the processing time for a single inquiry?
A single inquiry takes about 15 seconds to return a response.
What is the processing time for a batch inquiry for many patients?
A batch file inquiry typically returns results in less than 24 hours. However, processing time may be affected by the size of the file, the number of patients, if any payers are down, and the number of files in the queue to be processed.
What is the implementation timeline?
The average implementation time for this healthcare insurance coverage discovery software application is 30 days.
