I went to see my chiropractor this morning. They are a small office that sees one patient at a time in an old building located in downtown San Francisco. I chose them because they are in-network with my medical insurance. 

On my first appointment, the receptionist asked for my ID. She got out an iPad, took a picture of the card- front and back, fiddled with auto-cropping and sizing for a few minutes, checked my insurance, and then let me see the doctor. After getting my spine adjusted, I asked why they needed to see my ID and grab a picture of it. ‘Unfortunately, we see a lot of insurance and identity fraud every day. Every single person who comes into the office is wearing a mask which makes it even harder to verify each patient. Not verifying ID cards, often creates an issue because of payments and insurances that are associated with the account. We have been taking a picture of patients’ ID’s for a long time.

Verifying patient identity with their insurance information can save even a small office, like that of my chiropractor, significant pain down the line. Most medical insurances don’t even offer chiropractic care as a covered benefit until you have reached a certain deductible. So, it becomes even more important for these offices to track ID cards in order to be paid correctly, reduce ID fraud, and meet their needed expenses.
