| There are
several reasons Health Card Validation would be a beneficial
addition to your clinic.
Lost Income:
First and foremost, Health Card Validation can save you
thousands of dollars per year in patient fees and lost administration
pay.
Administration Time:
By far the greatest benefit of Health Card Validation is
saving time. For larger clinics, the time spent on simple
submission recovery due to invalid health numbers can quickly
add up to a single employee's full workweek per month. Health
Card Validation saves valuable employee time. The hours
spent on contacting patients to correct cards errors, the
resubmission of claims and the adjustment of clinic ledgers
can now be spent more productively on other clinic management
duties.
Reduction of Invalid Health Cards:
When you use Health Card Validation, you save yourself time
and money, but also help cut down on the number of invalid
health cards throughout Ontario.
Stop losing money with Overnight Batch
Eligibility Checking. It does not solve the problem!
With OBEC, all validation takes place only overnight rather
then both during the night and at the time of the patients
visit. So when you only use OBEC, a walk-in patient will
not have their card validated until the next morning, or
your staff will have waste time by calling IVR to verify
its authenticity.
Perhaps a patient arrives for an appointment but the night
before OBEC deemed their card invalid. You still don't know
if the card they presented is invalid or just the number
on file is. With Health Card Validation you eliminate these
problems and get the correct results instantaneously.
The immediate benefit of Health Card Validation is that
problems are identified right away. When patient health
number issues are identified early, subsequent problems
are all but eliminated.
