Verification of Benefits

Coverage confirmed before admission — every eligible benefit surfaced, so your admissions team never has to guess.

In behavioral health, a missed or misread benefit at intake doesn't cost you once — it follows the entire episode of care. Centerline verifies every prospective patient's coverage before admission, then hands your admissions team a clear, written summary they can act on with confidence.

What's included

  • Real-time eligibility and benefit checks across commercial and managed-care payers
  • Plan-specific detail: deductible, co-insurance, out-of-pocket maximum, day and visit limits
  • Prior-authorization and pre-certification requirements flagged up front
  • Level-of-care coverage confirmed — detox, residential, PHP, IOP, outpatient
  • A written VOB summary your admissions team can read in seconds

We verify with the payer

Our team confirms eligibility and pulls full plan detail directly with the payer, not a clearinghouse guess.

3

You get a clear summary

A written VOB with everything your admissions team needs to make the call — and protect the claim downstream.
