The opportunity

5,500 monthly verifications were consuming 2,292 staff hours

MANUAL VOLUME

The team manually processed 5,500 insurance verification requests each month across thousands of appointments.

TIME PRESSURE

Each transaction took 25 minutes. Staff spent hours navigating payer portals, interpreting benefits, and cross-checking policy details, especially during peak scheduling periods.

ERRORS AND DISCREPANCIES

Manual verification created a high risk of data errors and frequent coverage discrepancies that often led to claim rejections. Barbaro needed more capacity without compromising accuracy or patient satisfaction.

The approach

Droidal developed a custom Insurance Verification AI Agent for Barbaro Dental Group. The workflow moves from data capture and validation through exception routing, record updates, and management reporting.

PHASE 1

EXTRACT AND MATCH

The AI Agent extracts insurance data from claim forms and matches it with the corresponding policyholder information in the system.

PHASE 2

VALIDATE COVERAGE

It validates policy details and benefits, including coverage limits, exclusions, and terms, against the submitted claims.

PHASE 3

FLAG DISCREPANCIES

It identifies missing information, policy-term issues, and coverage errors, then routes those discrepancies for resolution.

PHASE 4

UPDATE AND REPORT

The AI Agent enters verified data into the dental group’s CRM and generates reports covering success rates and flagged errors. The reports are emailed to the management team for review and documentation.
