How Does Policy Alerts Work?
Policy Alerts’ medical policy monitoring and alerts software continuously monitors Commercial, Medicare, and Medicaid coverage information to keep you up-to-date on coverage changes in real-time.
Policy Alerts’ software locates relevant Payer medical policies and coverage information from across the web. This software monitors that information for updates and changes while also searching for new medical policies and coverage information. Whenever changes occur, Policy Alerts immediately sends out an email notification containing a summary of what has changed.
Clients can access their medical policies and payer coverage summary on the interactive Policy Alerts dashboard. Never miss another important insurance carrier medical policy review or coverage decision update again!
