VOB turnaround calculator
Manual verification of benefits consumes skilled staff time in portal logins, hold queues and re-keyed notes. Enter your volume and handle time to see the monthly load.
Manual VOB load
Staff hours per month105 h
Staff cost per month$2,940
Hours returned with assisted VOB~63 h
Illustrative estimate from your inputs. Assisted scenario assumes 60% of verification effort is automated with human review. Your pilot measures the real figure.
Interpretation guide
How to use this number
Use the output as a decision aid: verify the inputs, read the operational signal, then choose what to measure or change next.
Count the hidden minutes
Include portal lookups, phone holds, documentation and rework when a field is wrong. Teams usually undercount by a third.
Watch turnaround, not just cost
Hours are the visible cost. Slower VOB also delays scheduling, which quietly lowers inquiry-to-admission conversion.
Keep human review in the model
The assisted scenario assumes staff still review uncertain fields. Automation that hides uncertainty creates downstream denials.
Method & assumptions
Monthly hours equal verification volume multiplied by minutes per verification, divided by 60. Cost applies your fully loaded hourly rate. The assisted scenario assumes 60% of effort is automated with human review of uncertain fields, an assumption stated on the tool itself.
