At eClaimStatus, we specialise in Coverage Discovery solutions that enables healthcare providers to verify and identify active insurance coverage.
Within the Fast–Track world of healthcare revenue cycle management, one recurring challenge continues to plague hospitals, physician practices, and billing companies: unidentified or inactive insurance coverage. Every year, providers leave billions of dollars uncollected due to the presence of missed or outdated patient insurance information. This is where Insurance Discovery Software comes into play—transforming how healthcare organisations uncover hidden coverage, reduce bad debt, and improve their bottom line.
At eClaimStatus, we specialise in Coverage Discovery solutions that enables healthcare providers to verify and identify active insurance coverage for uninsured or underinsured patients. Our platform is designed to help revenue cycle teams focus on what truly matters—maximising collections while minimising manual effort.
In this blog post, we’ll explore what Insurance Discovery is, how Coverage Discovery works, and why your organization can’t afford to ignore this essential technology in today’s reimbursement landscape.
What is Insurance Discovery Software?
Insurance Discovery Software is a digital solution that automatically searches for active insurance coverage associated with a patient—even when none is initially reported. This software scours multiple databases, payer systems, and clearinghouses to find hidden or forgotten insurance policies, including:

Why Insurance Discovery is Essential
Hospitals and providers often struggle with self-pay and uninsured accounts, many of which result in write-offs or collection agency referrals. However, research shows that 10–20% of these accounts actually have billable insurance coverage that was never reported during patient registration or became active retroactively.
Here’s where coverage discovery solutions shine:
Simply put, Insurance Discovery Software turns lost opportunities into revenue.

Use Cases: When to Use Insurance Discovery Software
Our Coverage Discovery software is especially useful in the following scenarios:
Patients labelled as “self-pay” may have insurance but failed to disclose it. Discovering coverage early means faster reimbursement.
If patient communications bounce or contact details are incorrect, our system still uncovers insurance using alternate identifiers.
Reworking denied or aged accounts? Use coverage discovery to find insurance and re-bill claims with higher success.
Many emergency visits involve unconscious or unresponsive patients. Insurance discovery ensures retroactive coverage identification.
