Dependent Eligibility Audit

The Dependent Audit Process

A Dependent Eligibility Audit typically removes between 5 and 12 percent of the dependents from your health plan. With annual healthcare costs ranging from an average of $3,000 to $5,000 per dependent, the savings add up quickly.

As part of our comprehensive process, we:

  • Customize an employee communication plan to explain the audit and the reasons for it
  • Educate employees about eligibility requirements
  • Review required documentation
  • Identify ineligible dependents
  • Outline an appeals process

To deliver even more value to employers, we also:

  • Provide detailed reporting and analysis of an employer’s employee and dependent population
  • Build an accurate centralized database of eligible participants
  • Recommend ways to improve eligibility verification and administration processes
