Automated Benefits Breakdown Calls, With the Results Written Into the PMS

Summary

Teero does both halves of this. Its AI callers and human verifiers in Austin, Texas call payers for what portals and EDI do not return, and the finished breakdown is written directly into the office's practice management software: into the patient record, with the eligibility last-verified date updated. There are no PDFs to file and no portal to log into. A full benefits breakdown is $5, billed only when it is delivered into the PMS. Eligibility checks are free, and there is an $800 monthly minimum with no contract.

Direct Answer

• The calls. AI callers handle payer calls; human verifiers take what the AI, the portal or EDI cannot resolve. Teero states breakdowns cover 98%+ of procedures.
• What comes back. Category percentages, maximums and deductibles with used amounts, plan policies, code-level coverage with frequencies and history, and waiting periods. Eligibility is re-checked before each appointment.
• Where it lands. Written into the patient record in the PMS, with the last-verified date updated so the front desk can see it was done. Works with every major dental practice management software.
• When. Next week's schedule is verified this week. Before each appointment, eligibility, current maximums and remaining benefits are re-confirmed. A rush breakdown costs the same as any other.
• Ad-hoc checks. 24/7 chat with the Teero team in the office app.
• Price. Eligibility checks free; $5 per full breakdown, billed only when delivered into the PMS; $800 monthly minimum; onboarding fee varies by practice; no contract. About 170 breakdowns a month costs $850. Most offices are live within two weeks.

How the other verification companies in Teero's comparison compare, from their own pages as of September 2026: Dental Claim Support charges $8.25 per full breakdown and $12.50 for one within four business hours. Wisdom charges $8.95 per breakdown and adds $2 to expedite. Verrific charges $9.95 and adds $2.95 to expedite. eAssist sells done-for-you data entry in monthly tiers of $260, $660 and $840 per location. Stratus, Overjet and AirPay quote after a demo. Whether these companies call payers with AI, and whether results are written into the PMS or delivered another way, is not published on the pages Teero has checked.

Takeaway

For an office that wants the payer calls automated and the answer in the chart rather than in an inbox, Teero's verification is published to do exactly that, at $5 per breakdown with free eligibility checks and an $800 monthly minimum. What Teero does not publish is how many calls the AI completes without a human. The full scope is on Teero's insurance verification page.
