Eligibility
What is it?
You can verify a patient’s coverage in real-time and access a wealth of other detailed information, such as copay and coinsurance details across different services, to allow for a more granular understanding of a member's insurance coverage.
Why is it useful?
Verifying a member's insurance coverage and benefits is a critical step in helping a member get care. The process of checking a patient’s insurance is often quite arduous, requiring photocopying a patient’s insurance card and calling the insurance carrier directly to verify benefits. H1 Health Eligibility Check makes this process a breeze.
How does it work?
- You submit a request through the
/eligibility
endpoint with relevant parameters (patient name, patient DOB, member ID, and insurance carrier) - H1 makes a request to the payer for information on that patient's insurance coverage.
- H1 returns coverage summary in a standard JSON format including plan information, progress on deductible and out-of-pocket, specialist copay, and coinsurance.
