Website Helps ECP’s Determine Patient’s Insurer
|
Top Line: Who is Your Insurance is a website created by IT professionals who wanted to buy glasses and contact lens without having to deal with corporate HR departments, or figure out the details of what their insurance covered. It is affiliated with My Vision Express, a supplier of practice management software.
Close Up: The site will instantly provide the office manager or administrator with the patient’s vision care insurance information, even if the patient himself has no idea who their vision insurance carrier is. The manager does not have to explain the insurance system to the patient, and the patient does not have to obtain a lot of confusing information from their company’s HR department.
Key features:
- Instantly searches all insurance carriers simultaneously from one place instead of visiting each carrier's website
- Security roles within Who is Your Insurance provide an additional security layer to your account and your data
- Track which employees are searching, and what they are searching
- Employees do not need to know the office’s insurance carrier account credentials
- Integrates with practice management software
National Vision Administrators (NVA); OptiCare; OptumHealth (Spectera); Superior Vision; TriCare; Vision Benefits of America (VBA).
