Electronic Benefit Verification: INS Verification report (Electronic Benefit Verification Usage)

The INS Verification (Electronic Benefit Verification Usage) report allows you to view all of the electronic verifications attempted within a selected date range. To access and view the report the Electronic Benefit Verification feature must be enabled for use and Users must have view and edit patient’s permissions. Click here for the full Electronic Benefit Verification overview.

Note: WebPT has implemented some preventative internal validations on all electronic benefit verification requests being sent to the insurance. These validations look for missing patient information (missing Subscriber ID, missing NPI, and unmapped Electronic Payers). Any requests missing this information will result in Insufficient Info status in the result column of the report and will not count toward your processed verifications allocated for the month.

Result Statuses

Processed - Success - the request made it to the payer, the payer returned the benefit information
Processed - Error - The request made it to the payer however, there was a problem with the information sent and the payer was unable to retrieve and return benefit information.
Processing - The request is still in progress.
Insufficient info - the patient record or case is missing required information. WebPT will not send the request if the following details are missing.
- Subscriber ID
- NPI for therapist or group if selected
- The payer is not mapped to a Verified electronic payer

Rejected - This result indicates a problem reaching the payer or a rejected due to NPI or provider not being registered with the payer. Ensure the payer is mapped to the correct or top payer in the insurance payer hierarchy. We've provided a few examples of Insurance hierarchy, here.

Note: CMS requires a one-time validation and approval of each NPI submitting electronic verification for Medicare insurances mapped to Medicare Part A and B. This results in an immediate benefit verification rejection. Please allow two days to validate and approve the NPI before initiating additional attempts to electronically verify benefits.
