Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can eligibility verification be implemented?

Most implementations are completed within one week, including system integration, staff training, and workflow setup. We can accommodate expedited implementations for urgent situations.

Our multi-source verification approach includes backup data sources and automated retry logic. When primary systems are unavailable, we use alternative verification methods to minimize delays.

While our primary focus is US-based insurance, we can verify coverage for many international carriers with US operations and provide guidance on self-pay arrangements for international patients.

We verify based on the ordered tests and CPT codes provided, checking coverage for the specific services requested. If additional tests are added during analysis, we can re-verify coverage before billing.

Our detailed verification results provide specific reasons for coverage issues, enabling informed patient conversations. We document all verification attempts, protecting your laboratory if coverage disputes arise.

Yes, our verification process specifically identifies when services are not covered, allowing proactive patient communication about self-pay options before testing proceeds.

What Our Clients Say?

Linda Hutchinson
Linda Hutchinson
Laboratory Director
Our NGS panel denials dropped from 32% to under 6% within three months. TransLabs' expertise with molecular tier codes, prior authorization management, and LCD compliance has been invaluable. They understand the nuances of genetic testing billing that our previous vendor completely missed.
Peter Wozniak

Pathologist & Laboratory Owner
We've worked with three other billing companies over the years. TransLabs is the only one that truly understands complex surgical pathology coding, immunohistochemistry billing, and the nuances of TC/PC modifiers. Clean claims rate improved to 99%, and our dermatopathology reimbursement increased 27%.

Cytogenetics Laboratory Manager
Before TransLabs, our FISH and karyotype claims were a constant struggle with denials and underpayments. Their coders actually understand probe configurations, complexity levels, and when to use 88271 versus 88275. Our cytogenetics revenue increased 34% in the first year.
