What is everyone using to check patient eligibility before office visits? Anyone discover an awesome and inexpensive way to check Medicare patients?

I’ve used availity also, but I am pretty sure it only checks patients with private insurance. Can it check batches of patients? If so, how would I do that? thanks.

Ok I was fiddling around in availity again. They have made some nice updates. I can’t see how to submit a batch of patients for eligibility checks though. Help please.

Thank you Terry. Is there a way to generate this report from patients for a facility… not scheduled patients? We run a lot of clinics, so patients aren’t always scheduled for specific time slots.

if memory serves me you should be able to run the report based on facility.

I am not sure what you would need to do to look at unscheduled patients.

I will look more at the code sometime next week.
