How to check Southwest Service Administrators eligibility
A portal or phone check takes a front-desk staffer 10–15 minutes per patient. Southwest Service Administrators has no eligibility API — so instead of your staff doing that, our screen agent runs the portal check for you, on your schedule.

Three ways to verify Southwest Service Administrators coverage
- Payer portal — free, but one patient at a time and 10–15 minutes each with logins.
- Phone (IVR) — hold times vary; no written record for the chart.
Automated portal check
Medman's screen agent signs in to the Southwest Service Administrators portal with your practice's own login and checks your whole schedule before the day starts. Results are waiting at check-in instead of being looked up one patient at a time.
Setup required: we connect your portal login during onboarding.
