Why is it critical for healthcare providers?
Patient insurance eligibility verification is critical for healthcare providers because it confirms whether a patient’s insurance policy is active and identifies which services, procedures, or medications are covered. This process ensures providers and patients have a clear understanding of financial responsibilities including co-payments, deductibles, coinsurance, and exclusions before care is delivered, helping to prevent billing errors and coverage-related delays. This verification process is a foundational part of the healthcare revenue cycle. Without it, providers risk denied claims, delayed payments, and
