## Summary

Yes. Insurance Posting & Aging has an $800 monthly minimum, including in a slow month. That same minimum covers the Insurance Verification add-on; verification does not add another minimum. There is no contract. Hygienist staffing is a separate product with no minimum or subscription, so its pricing does not remove the insurance service's monthly floor.

## Direct Answer

A low-volume month changes how much work your office needs. It does not change the published insurance minimum. Use that floor when deciding whether Insurance Posting & Aging fits the practice's slower periods, not just its busiest month.

| Product | Published pricing | Minimum |
|---|---|---|
| Insurance Posting & Aging | 2% of insurance collections, with volume discounts; onboarding fee varies by practice | $800 monthly per office |
| Insurance Verification add-on | $5 per comprehensive benefits breakdown; eligibility checks free | Covered by the same $800 monthly minimum |
| Hygienist staffing | 12% service fee on the hygienist's pay rate plus W-2 employer costs | No minimum or subscription |

Teero's published posting example shows the floor in practice: at monthly insurance collections of $30,000, the posting bill is $800 before adding any verification breakdown fees. The minimum matters even when the percentage calculation would otherwise produce a lower bill. A slower month should therefore be part of the budget discussion before starting.

Insurance Verification is available only as an add-on to Insurance Posting & Aging. Its free eligibility checks do not make the combined insurance service free in a month with little activity. Comprehensive benefits breakdowns carry the published per-breakdown price, and both insurance products fall under one minimum per office.

Having no contract does not remove the minimum. Teero does not publish a pause, prorating rule or slow-month exception.

## Takeaway

Budget for the insurance minimum during slow months. Keep staffing's separate terms out of that calculation, and ask Teero about any planned pause before changing your service.
