Insurance eligibility check

One row per insurance eligibility check per warehouse. Each row is a verification request sent to a payer (via the ClaimMD clearinghouse) to confirm a patient’s insurance coverage, along with its result. This data is specific to Elation Billing; there is no EHR-side equivalent. Join to patient and patient_insurance for the patient and the policy that were checked. This table’s columns and relationships are shown in the Hosted Database schema.

is_eligible is the payer’s determination for the check (true = active/eligible coverage, false = inactive) - it is the source of the eligibility status carried on patient_insurance. is_internal marks checks initiated by an internal Elation pathway (EHR insurance sync or agentic billing) rather than by a billing user.

For reporting on but not limited to:

Whether a patient’s coverage came back eligible, and when it was last checked
Eligibility check volume and outcomes over time
How checks were run (electronic, manual, or error)
Which checks were internal/automated versus user-initiated
