Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance do you verify patient insurance?
We typically verify insurance 5-7 business days before appointments to ensure ample time for addressing any issues that may arise. This timeframe allows us to resolve any discrepancies, obtain needed documentation, or make schedule adjustments if necessary. For new patients or emergency appointments scheduled with shorter notice, we prioritize these verifications for expedited processing.
How do you handle insurance plans that require special documentation?
When we identify plans requiring special documentation (such as X-rays, periodontal charting, or narratives), we immediately flag this in your practice management system and notify your team about the specific requirements. We can also help prepare and submit pre-authorization requests when needed, ensuring all required documentation is included to expedite approval.
Can you help explain benefits to patients?
Yes, we offer patient benefit explanation services as part of our comprehensive verification package. We can prepare easy-to-understand benefit summaries for your front desk to share with patients, or our team can directly contact patients to explain their coverage details. This service helps patients understand their financial responsibility before treatment, reducing misunderstandings and improving case acceptance.
How do you integrate with our practice management software?
We can integrate with all major dental practice management software systems, including Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental, and many others. Our team will securely access your system to extract appointment information and input verification details directly into patient records. This ensures your team has immediate access to up-to-date insurance information without additional data entry or manual transfers between systems.
