A standards-based process,
from inquiry to answer.

Enter provider, payer, and patient information through the dashboard or your own system via our REST API.

The platform builds a standards-compliant X12 270 eligibility inquiry and routes it directly to the payer.

The payer's system replies with a structured X12 271 response containing active coverage and benefit data.

Copays, deductibles, coinsurance, and out-of-pocket data are extracted and organized into a readable summary.

View coverage status, plan dates, and patient responsibility in the dashboard, or pull it into your own system via API.

If prior authorization is required or coverage is inactive, the system flags it immediately — before a claim is ever filed.

Built on standards, not workarounds — so every result reflects what the payer actually says.

Standards-Based Results

Every response is parsed directly from the payer's X12 271 transaction — not estimated.

Fast Processing

Real-time checks return in seconds, with bulk processing for full-day schedules.

HIPAA-Compliant

Protected health information is encrypted in transit and access-controlled at every step.

Reliable Connectivity

RCM-Expert Driven

Built by a team that understands payer rules, denials, and prior authorization in practice.
