Setting up right expectations with allowable reimbursements
Figuring out the benefits and coverage that a patient is entitled to for particular medical procedures is one of the most important steps.
It gives you a better understanding of the allowable reimbursements that have to be collected from either the patient or the insurances. In a climate where patients have high deductibles, it is important to set up the right expectations from your patient.
Patient doctor relations must not be hampered
Verifying the benefits will tell you whether the services you provide fall under your patient’s insurance plan. So, if your patient has a low premium plan, then their insurance is likely to cover fewer medical services.
