What is the difference between Basic Eligibility Verification and Advanced Eligibility Verification?

Adit can do two types of Insurance Verification for your practice: Advanced Eligibility Verification and Basic Eligibility Verification.

Advanced Eligibility Verification is the initial check required to verify coverage amounts for:
  1. A patient’s first ever visit to your practice,
  2. A patient’s first visit in a calendar year, or
  3. A patient’s first visit after changing their insurance.
In an Advanced verification, Adit will ask more questions and get more detailed information about the patient’s eligibility, coverage, and limits.

After the initial Advanced verification is complete, that patient will not need to do another Advanced Elilgibility Verification for the rest of the calendar year, or until they change their insurance - whichever comes first. Each of that patient’s subsequent visits on the same insurance in the same calendar year will only need to undergo a Basic Eligibility Verification instead. Basic verifications are simplified and mainly check to see remaining benefits and coverage amounts.

Within the settings for Adit’s Insurance Verification feature, you can specify exactly which treatment codes should be included in either an Advanced Eligibility Verification, a Basic Eligibility Verification, or both. The treatment codes you select will be checked every time a patient undergoes that type of verification.
