Your questions, answered

Is Teero better than Stratus for insurance verification?

If you want verification done for you, yes. Stratus gives your team software to run: the AI generates breakdowns, QA checks them, and your staff works the dashboard. Teero does the work itself: U.S.-based specialists monitor every plan, call payers when a portal doesn't return the codes, and deliver the finished breakdown into your PMS. The pricing is published too: as an add-on to Insurance Posting & Aging, eligibility checks are free and breakdowns are $5.

What is the difference between Teero and Stratus?

Stratus is a platform your team operates: AI runs the verifications, QA checks the reports, and your staff works from its dashboard of verified, in-progress, and unverified patients. Teero is a done-for-you service: we confirm eligibility, deliver comprehensive benefits breakdowns before every appointment, and write them straight into your PMS. Teero's pricing is simple: eligibility checks are free, benefits breakdowns are $5, and it's an add-on to Insurance Posting & Aging under one $800 monthly minimum, with no contract.

How much does Stratus cost compared to Teero?

Stratus doesn't publish pricing; you book a demo for a quote, and its site promotes a $500 credit toward setup (usestratus.com, August 2026). Teero publishes its pricing: eligibility checks are free, benefits breakdowns are $5, and it's an add-on to Insurance Posting & Aging under one $800 monthly minimum, with no contract.

Can I switch from Stratus to Teero?

Yes, without a gap: you onboard while your current setup keeps running, and most offices are live within two weeks. No contract; the onboarding fee varies by practice.

Who does the verification work at Stratus?

Stratus's AI agent does the verification and its QA team reviews the reports (usestratus.com, August 2026); your team runs the platform and works anything left unverified. At Teero, U.S.-based specialists do the work end to end: they monitor every plan, call the payer when portals come up short, and deliver the completed breakdown into your PMS.

Is Teero legit?

Yes. You may already know us from staffing: Teero is the largest W-2 employer of dental hygienists in the U.S., and more than 5,000 offices partner with us across our staffing and insurance services.
