SSI uses contract modeling, historical charge data, and real-time eligibility responses to calculate estimates based on a patient’s actual coverage and benefits—not generic averages.

A Two-Pronged Approach to Transparency
SSI Estimation supports both patient self-service and provider workflows to deliver accurate estimates and stronger financial communication. Patients can access reliable cost estimates for common procedures online through your website, helping them make informed decisions before care.
At the same time, staff gain contract-modeled estimates built from payer agreements, charge history, and real-time eligibility data for greater accuracy and compliance. With saved patient estimates, custom scripting, and dynamic estimate letters, teams can turn financial conversations into clearer, more productive collection opportunities.
