Reading a verification

the plate for the lesson Reading a verification

A verification is a set of facts on a visit, each of them said out loud by a representative, with the recording behind it.

Where it happens

The visit, in Lana. This lesson is part of the Eligibility with Lana track.

What this lesson covers

  1. Step 1

    Read the fields

    Active or not, plan type, copay, coinsurance, whether the deductible is met, visits used and remaining, whether a referral or a prior authorization is needed, whether telehealth is covered.

  2. Step 2

    Find the reference number

    It was asked for at the close of the call and read back. It is the first thing an appeal cites.

  3. Step 3

    Play the call

    The recording is kept with its transcript, so any single fact can be checked against the words that produced it.

  4. Step 4

    Check the read-back

    Every identifier was read back and confirmed before a question was asked, so the answer is about the right person. A verification that quietly ran on the wrong member ID is worse than none.

After this lesson

You can read a verification, find its reference number, and check any one fact against the recording.

The Academy keeps a record of what each person has completed. It is a record, not a credential: auro accredits no one, and no lesson carries CE or CEU credit.
