Most payers I have talked to are only responding whether the patient is eligible and that is about it.

However, even if a provider sends in a general request of EQ01 = 30, the payer should send back as much information as possible given the limitations of their core system - including deductible, copay, coinsurance, visit limits, detailed demographics, etc. That way, the requester can make their same generic request of everyone without needing to worry what key will unlock the riches of a content-rich response from a specific payer and conversely, payers that can give back lots of information don't have to be limited by the providers expectations.

Are most requires, that you are setting up for, going to be mostly general eligibility requests or more detailed benefit requests? We are at a stale mate on how specific of a response we will need to generate. If we only need to do the minimum because we don't think it will be used to much, that is what we want to do. But in any case we want to be prepared. Any responses are appreciated.
