How verification works

Four beats. One business day.

    PHP, IOP, and outpatient for this member ID. In-network or out-of-network is what the plan says — not a sentence we print in advance.

  • What we do not invent

    Copays, deductibles, and day counts. We do not say we accept all Aetna. We tell you what the plan returned.

  • What happens next

    Admissions maps the answer against the week you are actually in. Private pay is a separate conversation if insurance is not the path.
