Dental Insurance Verification Services

 

An insurance verification specialist in your dental practice should call the patient’s insurance provider before the appointment to verify the patient’s eligibility for dental insurance. Your dental billing department representative can use an interactive voice response (IVR) technology operated by the insurance company to check a patient’s eligibility.

Every week, dental and medical billing departments all around the U.S. and Canada spend hours waiting on hold to complete insurance verification duties. Your dental office can save hours of labour and enhance dental claim clearance rates by outsourcing dental insurance verification to a built-in dental billing service.

A new patient’s insurance claim is more likely to be denied by an insurance company than one for an established patient. Even so, if a dentist doesn’t carry out the proper dental insurance eligibility verification, insurance companies will reject dental claims for current patients.

Your dental insurance billing department or dental insurance verification service will need to confirm a patient’s benefits before a procedure in order to submit an insurance claim for payment and prevent claim denials, regardless of whether Delta Dental, Humana, UnitedHealthcare, or another dental insurance coverage provider provides coverage
