Insurance Misinformation
I appreciate Headway for making the credentialing and insurance paneling process much easier, and I generally enjoy using the platform and software. My main frustration has been with insurance verification and the accuracy of benefit information, particularly with Select Health. There have been multiple situations where Headway initially showed that a client had no copay or that services were covered, only for the client to later be back-charged hundreds of dollars once the insurance claim was fully processed. The verification process can also take a long time, which means clients may attend several sessions before anyone realizes that the original benefit information was incorrect. I would really like to see more accurate and timely insurance verification, as well as clearer communication when coverage is still pending or uncertain. It puts both providers and clients in a difficult position when the information initially provided by Headway later turns out to be inaccurate.
