Create a Verification Checklist Insurance name, phone number, and claims address Insurance ID and group number Name of insured, as it isn't always the patient Relationship of the insurance to the patient Effective date of the policy End date for the policy Whether coverage is currently active www.bikham.com

  4. Get a Copy of The Patient's Insurance Card Begin the process of collecting information by asking for a copy of new insurance information from the patient. It's a good idea to ask for a copy of the card even if the patient states that insurance hasn't changed. www.bikham.com

Even a single data error may cause days or weeks of delay on payments, and even could go unpaid. Train your office staff to keep due care while transcribing information into the patient record. www.bikham.com
