What Is NaviNet?
NaviNet is a payer-provider collaboration portal from NantHealth. NantHealth’s published figures put sponsorship at more than 40 health plans, with a nationwide network of over 450,000 users signing in to work with those plans. When a health plan sponsors NaviNet, its provider workflows are free to the practice: claims, Eligibility and Benefits, authorizations, and patient and practice documents, plus drug authorizations powered by CoverMyMeds. Paid NaviNet AllPayer subscriptions extend the same screens beyond sponsoring plans: Eligibility and Benefits for 1,270+ plans, Claim Status Inquiry for 660+ plans, and claim submission on the top tier.
The catch is that a portal answers questions; it does not do the work. Someone still has to sit in NaviNet before each clinic day and run the eligibility list, chase claim statuses one payer at a time, watch the authorization queues, pull plan documents, and then re-key what they learned into the PM and EMR. In most practices that someone is the same front desk that is also answering phones. This page is about staffing that gap.
The Work Your Team Does in NaviNet, We Staff
Who Is This For?
Practices whose payer mix leans on NaviNet-sponsored health plans, which is where the portal earns its keep: the front desk checks NaviNet for eligibility before clinic, billing checks it for claim status after submission, and referral staff watch its authorization and document queues in between. It also fits billing teams that hold a NaviNet AllPayer subscription and need someone to actually work the 1,270+ plan eligibility screens and 660+ plan claim status screens they are paying for, instead of letting the subscription idle.
Where NaviNet Practices Lose Time and Money
Eligibility runs, claim status checks, and document pulls in NaviNet each take minutes, and the minutes compound into staff-days every month that the front desk does not have.
See the fixPlans outside NaviNet mean more portals, more logins, and more chances for an authorization to be started in one system and lost in another.
See the fixAn authorization confirmed in NaviNet still denies if the number is entered wrong, or not at all, in the PM before the claim goes out.
See the fixWhen nobody owns the follow-up cadence, stuck claims surface at 60 or 90 days, and some of them age past timely filing before anyone opens the portal.
See the fixEligibility and Benefits Verification
Our specialists run NaviNet’s Eligibility and Benefits workflow against tomorrow’s schedule, every business day. For sponsoring plans that includes plan detail like visit maximums and visits remaining; with an AllPayer subscription the same screen reaches 1,270+ commercial, Medicaid, and Medicare plans. We record what the portal returns, flag coverage problems before the patient arrives, and enter the verified coverage into your PM so the claim starts clean.
Claim Status Inquiry Follow-Up
NaviNet’s Claim Status Inquiry covers 660+ health plans on paid tiers and includes adjudication detail for sponsoring plans. We work it on a fixed cadence: new claims checked at set intervals, pended claims tracked to a decision, and problem claims escalated with the payer reference numbers your billers need. The point is not the lookup; it is that a person owns the follow-up rhythm so nothing waits for a remit that is not coming.
Medical Authorizations and Referrals
For plans that sponsor authorization workflows in NaviNet, we submit and track authorizations and referrals in the portal, follow each request until the plan posts a decision, and document the approval number, valid dates, and units where your schedulers and billers will actually see them. Auth work started in a portal and finished nowhere is one of the most common denial stories we walk into; a dedicated owner ends it.
Drug Authorizations via CoverMyMeds
NaviNet includes drug authorizations powered by CoverMyMeds, with electronic submissions for any drug under any health plan, free to provider offices. Our team prepares the request from the chart, submits it through the workflow, watches for payer questions, and keeps the prescriber informed, so refills and new starts do not stall in a queue nobody checks between clinic sessions.
Claim Submission Support
Practices on the AllPayer Ultimate tier can submit claims through NaviNet to 8,100+ organizations. Where that is part of your workflow, our billers prepare and submit claims, reconcile what was sent against your PM, and work anything the payer kicks back. Where your claims flow through a separate clearinghouse instead, we simply work claim status and denials in NaviNet and leave submission where it lives today; we staff your workflow, we do not redesign it around ourselves.
Patient and Practice Documents
Sponsoring plans push patient and practice documents through NaviNet: letters, requests, and plan communications that quietly pile up. We open the document queues daily, route each item to the right owner in your practice, act on the ones that are ours to act on, and log the rest on a shared tracker your manager can audit, so a plan request does not surface for the first time as a denied claim.
Keeping NaviNet and Your PM in Sync
The most valuable half of portal work happens outside the portal: the eligibility result entered on the patient record, the auth number attached to the visit, the claim status noted on the account, the document filed to the chart. Our specialists are trained to finish the loop in your PM and EMR after each NaviNet action, in your format and your fields, which is what keeps the portal from becoming a parallel universe your billing system cannot see.
Coverage Beyond NaviNet
Almost no practice lives in one portal. The same dedicated specialist who runs your NaviNet queues can carry the identical checklist across your other payer portals and payer phone lines, so coverage is defined by your payer mix, not by which website the plan happens to use. One owner, one tracker, one daily report across all of it.

Book Your 2-Week Free TrialHow Our Teams Train and Go Live on NaviNet
New team members learn payer portal work through our SOP library and supervised, hands-on training on your own workflows: which plans your practice sees in NaviNet, what your eligibility checklist captures, how your PM expects auth numbers and coverage notes to be recorded. Production starts supervised, with a QA layer reviewing output before the team runs independently, and you see a production report every evening from day one. Every specialist works under an individual HIPAA agreement with named portal credentials you approve, never shared logins.

NaviNet Outsourcing: Frequently Asked Questions
What tasks can a virtual assistant do in NaviNet?
Eligibility and Benefits checks against the schedule, Claim Status Inquiry follow-up, authorization and referral submission and tracking for sponsoring plans, drug authorization workflows powered by CoverMyMeds, patient and practice document triage, and claim submission on AllPayer Ultimate, plus entering the results into your PM and EMR.
Can a third-party team even get access to our NaviNet?
Yes, through NaviNet’s own process: outside billing and support services register, and NaviNet validates the registration with the provider office before access is permitted. You approve named users; nothing happens without your sign-off.
Do we need a paid AllPayer subscription for this to work?
No. Sponsoring health plans’ workflows are free to provider offices, and many practices start there. If you hold an AllPayer subscription, we put it to work across its 1,270+ eligibility plans and 660+ claim status plans; if you do not, we work your sponsored plans in NaviNet and cover the rest by phone and other portals.
Whose NaviNet accounts and subscription are used?
Yours. You keep the accounts, the plan relationships, and any AllPayer subscription, and you can revoke our access at any time. We supply trained people, not a replacement platform.
How does portal work get back into our PM and EMR?
Finishing the loop is part of the SOP: eligibility results on the patient record, auth numbers and dates on the visit, claim status notes on the account, documents filed to the chart, all in your format. The daily report shows both sides, what was checked and where it was recorded.
What about payers that are not on NaviNet?
The same specialist works your other payer portals and payer phone lines with the same checklist and the same tracker, so coverage follows your payer mix rather than stopping at one portal’s edge.
Is outsourced NaviNet work secure and HIPAA-ready?
HIPAA-trained staff, executed BAAs, workflows designed to support HIPAA compliance, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001:2022, and $5M in coverage. Full detail on our security page.
How fast can a dedicated NaviNet specialist start?
Typically live in 14 days: access registration and validation, workflow training on your SOPs, then supervised production. The engagement starts with a 2-Week Free Trial.
