  2. Why Eligibility and Insurance Verification Are Critical for Clean Claims What Is Patient Eligibility and Insurance Verification? Patient eligibility and insurance verification is the process of confirming a patient’s active insurance coverage and the specific benefits included under their policy before delivering medical services. This verification process includes validation of patient plan types, an examination of plan coverage limits, etc. Also, demographic accuracy is confirmed, and requirements such as prior authorizations or referrals become evident through this step. The successful completion of this process protects hospitals from reimbursement delays and billing errors, along with denied claims, to produce an accurate revenue cycle management.
