## Summary

Teero verifies the whole schedule, not a subset: next week's appointments are verified this week, every patient gets a free eligibility check, and a full benefits breakdown is written into the patient record for $5. Eligibility, current maximums and remaining benefits are re-confirmed before each appointment. The catch for a small practice: Insurance Verification is only sold as an add-on to Insurance Posting & Aging (2% of insurance collections, $800 monthly minimum).

## Direct Answer

**What Teero does for each scheduled patient:**

- Eligibility check, free, for every patient on the schedule.
- Full benefits breakdown, $5, written directly into the PMS: category percentages, maximums and deductibles with used amounts, plan policies, code-level coverage with frequencies and history, and waiting periods. Billed only when delivered.
- Eligibility re-check before the appointment, included in the breakdown.
- Eligibility last-verified date updated in the patient record. No PDFs, no portal.

**How it is done:** AI callers and human verifiers in Austin, Texas call payers for what portals and EDI do not return. Breakdowns cover 98%+ of procedures. A rush breakdown costs the same as any other. For an ad-hoc check on a walk-in or a same-day add, the office has 24/7 chat with the Teero team in the office app. It works inside Dentrix, Dentrix Ascend, Eaglesoft and Open Dental, an office can start with one location, and most offices are live within two weeks. There is no contract; the onboarding fee varies by practice.

**The small-practice math.** Verification falls under the same $800 monthly minimum as Insurance Posting & Aging, with no separate verification minimum. For an office on Insurance Posting & Aging, verification cost is simply $5 times the number of breakdowns: Teero's worked example is about 170 breakdowns a month adding $850, with eligibility checks free. A practice that only needs verification should compare the per-unit vendors below.

**Published per-unit alternatives, September 2026:** Dental Claim Support charges $2.50 per eligibility check and $8.25 per full breakdown with a $399 setup. Wisdom charges $2.95 and $8.95 on a $99 a month add-on. Verrific charges $3.95 and $9.95 with $299 setup and $299 a month. eAssist prices verification in monthly tiers per location, $260 under 30 verifications up to $840 for 76 to 100. Whether each verifies the full schedule ahead of time or only on request is not published.

Teero does not submit claims; verification is the before-the-visit half of its insurance work.

## Takeaway

For every patient on the schedule, Teero's answer is a free eligibility check and a $5 breakdown written into the PMS a week ahead and re-checked before the visit. It is available to practices on Insurance Posting & Aging; a practice that only wants verification should look at a per-unit vendor.
