Why is the data on the weekly patient eligibility roster different from what is on the monthly Aetna DMO active patient roster?
The two reports are not the same. They come from different Aetna systems and are produced on different schedules. For this reason, they may not list exactly the same members.
The DMO active patient roster is produced monthly. It lists the Aetna members who have chosen you as their primary care dentist. It also includes your monthly payment information based on that list.
The dental patient eligibility roster is issued each week. It updates the list of your patients who have been added or removed since the previous week.
Will the online patient roster file include all HMO members?
No. The patient roster lists only those HMO members who have chosen a valid Aetna dental office.
