HOW SOHAR HELPS

Fix it at the front end

Check the right things before submission: the carve-out, the member ID, the plan as it stands today

1

Carve-outs caught before the claim goes out

Benefits returned for the service and setting, not just "active." Carve-out rules applied so the claim goes to the right place the first time

96%+
benefits accuracy across highest-volume payers
2

Member ID errors recovered, not resubmitted

A mistyped ID or wrong plan stops a covered patient. Discovery finds coverage from a name, date of birth and state. Verify the match before it reaches the claim

56%+
of patients without insurance details have coverage found
3

Coverage rechecked before the visit

Plans change mid-year. Recheck on a cadence tied to upcoming appointments and flag changes while staff can still act. Automatic, so rechecks do not add staff work

of requests verified automatically
Sohar measures the request. Your claims data measures the result

Where remittance data is available, each verification is compared with the adjudicated claim. Recurring errors by payer and benefit type become rule fixes. Track your eligibility-related denials before and after, on the same plans and services

FAQ

How does Sohar catch carve-outs?

Verification returns benefits for the service and setting you submit. Network Status applies your configured rules, including behavioral health carve-outs, so claims are routed correctly.

What if a patient gives us the wrong information?

Discovery searches for coverage from name, date of birth and state, so a mistyped member ID or wrong plan does not end the request. Any coverage found is verified before it is used. No match does not mean the patient is uninsured; your flow can ask for the missing details.

Will this eliminate denials?

No. Sohar addresses insurance issues that contribute to denials: missing coverage, benefit errors, carve-outs and network discrepancies. Coding, authorization and timely filing need their own processes. A successful verification is not a guarantee of payment.
