Position
Insurance Verification Specialist
Eligibility verified before every visit. No surprise denials.
An insurance verification specialist runs eligibility and benefits 48 to 72 hours before every visit, confirms copays, deductibles, coinsurance, and visit limits with commercial, Medicare, Medicare Advantage, and Medicaid payers, and documents the breakdown directly in the EHR. Most practices see a measurable drop in eligibility-related denials within the first 30 days.

What a insurance verification specialist does day-to-day
Our insurance verification specialists work the next-3-day schedule every morning, run real-time eligibility through Availity, Waystar, and direct payer portals, and post copay and deductible balances into your EHR before the patient walks in. They flag coverage changes, identify dual-eligible patients, and proactively work the no-coverage list. For specialty practices (dental, optometry, PT, mental health), they handle wellness plan limits, benefit caps, and carve-outs.
