Insurance eligibility verificationat every step of the treatment

CurerTech verifies a patient's insurance before the first visit and keeps it verified through the whole course of treatment — automatically re-checking coverage on a schedule set to each program, often weekly — so coverage that lapses or changes mid-treatment is caught before it becomes a denial. Part of the RCM (revenue cycle management — billing and collections) system, every check lands on the same record clinicians chart in.

What's inside

What does eligibility and benefits verification check — and when?

Everything the eligibility and benefits check returns — coverage, benefits, and cost — confirmed before treatment and re-checked throughout it, on the same record as care.

Every step

Ongoing re-verification

Coverage re-checked automatically through the episode of care — often weekly — not just once at intake.

Program-tuned

Match each program's billing rhythm

Choose how often coverage is re-verified — from daily to monthly — so you re-check as often as you bill.

Alerts

Coverage-change alerts

Flags when a plan lapses, terminates, or changes mid-treatment, before you bill for care you can't collect.

Real-time

Real-time eligibility checks

Active coverage confirmed in seconds against the payer, so you know before the patient arrives.

Benefits

Benefits detail

Copays, coinsurance, deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums, and visit limits, not just a yes/no.

Prior auth

Prior-authorization flags

Surfaces services that need authorization — important for MAT and residential levels of care.

DiscoverY

Coverage discovery

Find active coverage when the patient isn't sure what plan they have.

COB

Coordination of benefits

Identify primary and secondary payer order so claims go out in the right sequence.

Behavioral health

Behavioral-health plans

Handles mental health and substance use benefit carve-outs, telehealth coverage, and Medicaid managed care.

Patient cost

Patient cost estimate

Shows what the patient will owe, so the front desk can collect the right amount upfront.

Why it matters

Why keep verifying throughout treatment?

Coverage doesn't stay still — and in ongoing behavioral health care, a lapse you didn't catch becomes weeks of care you can't bill.

Coverage changes

Catch lapses mid-treatment

Patients lose Medicaid, switch plans, or age off coverage; recurring checks catch it before you bill care you can't collect.

Ongoing care

Made for repeat billing

MAT dosing, group therapy, and residential stays bill again and again — each needs current coverage, not a one-time check.

Less busywork

No manual re-verifying

Re-checks run automatically across active patients instead of staff logging into payer portals week after week.

More than a quarter of providers say at least one in ten of their claim denials trace back to inaccurate or incomplete intake data — and most denials stem from avoidable errors. (Experian Health, State of Claims 2025.)

One record

How does eligibility connect to the rest of CurerTech?

Verification runs at intake and on a recurring schedule, lands on the chart, and flows into the claim — not a separate portal to remember.

Eligibility questions

Insurance eligibility verification, answered

What is insurance eligibility verification?

It is confirming that a patient's insurance is active and checking what it covers — coverage status, copays, deductibles, and limits. CurerTech does it before the first visit and re-checks automatically throughout treatment, so claims are submitted clean rather than denied.

How often does it check eligibility?

Before the first visit and then automatically on a recurring schedule — often weekly — set to the program, so coverage is re-verified throughout treatment rather than only at intake. It can also run in batch across active patients.

Does it check benefits or just active coverage?

Both. Beyond confirming active coverage, it returns benefits detail — copay, coinsurance, deductible, out-of-pocket maximum, and visit limits — not just a yes/no.

Does it flag prior authorization?

Yes. It surfaces services that require prior authorization, which matters for MAT and residential levels of care where auth gaps drive denials.

Does it work for Medicaid and behavioral health plans?

Yes. It handles Medicaid and Medicaid managed care, plus mental health and substance use benefit carve-outs and telehealth coverage common in behavioral health.

Does it estimate what the patient will owe?

Yes. From the returned benefits, it estimates the patient's responsibility so the front desk can collect the right amount at the point of service.
