Sensentia AI Tools Deliver Accuracy, Comprehensiveness, and Accountability
Our benefit tools are powered by our proprietary artificial intelligence guaranteeing immediate, legally accurate and comprehensive responses different from other approaches in the industry. Responses are directly tied to member contracts for all selected plans, ensuring full accuracy and auditability.
Members, CSRs, agents, and other users are usually not familiar with clinical and claims terminology, making it difficult to derive correct answers without natural language support. Sensentia’s systems reason and present information intuitively while supporting natural language, synonyms, and intent recognition during the query process.
Take a look at how Sensentia's innovative technology works when applied to a member portal.

FAQs

Whether or not you you are required to comply with the Transparency in Coverage mandates there is a large financial benefit to allowing consumers to see the out-of-pocket costs related to supplies or services in their area. For example, allowing members to see the costs of a wheelchair or other DME from multiple suppliers in an area, your members will naturally choose the most economical source, which in turn benefits the member and the payor.
This type of cost-related utilization also benefits negotiations for payors as it will create pricing competition among suppliers.
