Abstract

Validating patient payment estimates is provided. Validating patient payment estimates may comprise matching patient payment estimates with claims, payments and insurance contracts and providing tools to analyze the results of the matching process. Discrepancies may be determined, for example discrepancies between procedures and patient portions from the estimate with procedures actually billed and paid and a patient portion determined by the insurance company. Results may be stored in a dashboard user interface, which may then be available via a user interface for drill-down analysis.
