inactive insurance policy. Realtime Eligibility requests are designed so that providers can determine if a payer has a particular patient policy on file and the status and/or the benefit information about that policy. Technically this is referred to as 270/271 transactions. These transactions allow the provider to preemptively determine if the patient has active insurance or not. One of the most common use patterns is to check a patient’s eligibility before they even step foot in the office so you can make sure they are insured and the payment method is acceptable. The Iridium Suite automates this process even further by allowing you to auto-generate the patient demographics and policy data based on the demographics supplied from the payer in the eligibility response.
