What's the difference between a VOB and eligibility verification?+

A verification of benefits (VOB) confirms a patient's insurance policy is active and outlines plan details like deductibles and co-pays. Eligibility verification is often used interchangeably with VOB. Neither tells you what a payer is likely to reimburse — that's what PayerLenz's benchmarking answers.

Does PayerLenz just confirm coverage, or does it estimate reimbursement too?+

Both. PayerLenz's real-time eligibility check returns coverage status, deductibles, and out-of-pocket maximums the same way a standard VOB does, but it also attaches the expected out-of-network reimbursement for that payer, state, and level of care in the same result.

How accurate are PayerLenz's reimbursement benchmarks?+

PayerLenz's benchmarks are estimates, not guarantees. Each benchmark is marked Tight or Wide, so you can see how much the claims behind it agreed, with the trust score one click away in the detailed view, drawn from adjudicated claims across 250 payer groups in 20 states and growing, from a pool of 500,000+ adjudicated claims. They're built to give a realistic, data-backed range rather than a single promised number.

What data powers PayerLenz's benchmarks?+

Adjudicated behavioral health claims data, contributed in part through PayerLenz's Claims Data Contribution Program. Customers can contribute de-identified claims each billing cycle to strengthen the benchmark pool, earning a discount on paid plans or free historical-search credits on the free tier.

Is PayerLenz the same company as Revenue Logic?+

No. Revenue Logic is a revenue cycle management company for behavioral health, founded in June 2023. PayerLenz, founded in 2026, is Revenue Logic's first software product — a separate product built by the same company.

Do I need a credit card or contract to start?+

PayerLenz's Free tier requires no credit card and includes 15 historical searches at signup, valid for 90 days, with 2 user seats. Paid plans (Essentials at $399/month, Professional at $665/month) each carry a one-time $200 setup fee.

How is PayerLenz different from a standard VOB tool like VerifyTX?+

Standard VOB tools, including VerifyTX, confirm coverage and benefit details. PayerLenz does that as well, but adds a reimbursement-rate benchmark built from adjudicated claims data on top of the eligibility check — answering not just whether a patient is covered, but what the payer is actually likely to pay.

What if my payer or state isn't in PayerLenz's benchmark pool yet?+

PayerLenz's benchmark pool currently covers 250 payer groups across 20 states and is growing, drawn from 500,000+ adjudicated claims, in part through the Claims Data Contribution Program. Coverage depth varies by payer and state depending on claim volume and recency, which is why every benchmark is marked Tight or Wide rather than shown as a flat number.
