Insurance Verification

Does your practice verify benefits prior to seeing the patients? If not, why????? I have seen practices that see a patient that they have not seen in over a year, bill their previous insurance and guess, what it is no longer in effect. They then have to either track down the patient for their correct insurance or bill the patient (which most times results in no payment).

With all the cut backs that are affecting physicians we need to get the billing information correct upfront so the cash flow goes uninterrupted. So the first step is to make sure you have the correct billing information upfront. Verification of Benefits is a service we do provide.
