Onceentered for healthcare intake

The front desk this is about

A new patient is registered. Name, date of birth, address, phone, insurer, member ID, group number, subscriber, the referring provider. It goes into the practice system once — and then it goes somewhere else.

The payer portal for eligibility. The specialist's referral form. The prior-authorisation request, which asks for the same member ID in a box labelled nothing like the last one did. Every one of them re-asks for a patient who is already fully entered on the screen behind it.

This is the work that makes an intake coordinator's afternoon disappear, and it is the work where a transposed member ID becomes a denied claim three weeks later.

Where this work goes

• Payer eligibility portals
• Availity
• CoverMyMeds
• Prior-authorisation request forms
• Referral portals
• Lab and imaging orders
• DME supplier forms
• The plan with its own web form and no other route

Named as examples of where the retyping goes, not as integrations. Onceentered has no per-site templates and nothing to configure — it reads whatever form is on the screen, which is why it still works on the small plan nobody builds connectors for.

The part your compliance officer will ask about first

Stated plainly and without overreach: because nothing leaves the device, there is no copy of patient information in our hands to protect, disclose, or lose. That does not transfer any of your own obligations to us, and it is not legal advice — your privacy officer should review any tool that touches patient data, and this one is deliberately easy to review. The privacy policy is short, and every claim in it is enforced by an executable check that fails the build.

Two more facts they will want: the extension requests no host permissions, so it has no standing access to any website and cannot run in the background; and it never fills hidden fields.

The fields that actually break autofill

Browser autofill stores the identity of the person sitting at the keyboard. At a front desk, that is never the person being registered.

• The same field under different names. Member ID, Subscriber ID, Policy Number. DOB, Date of Birth, Birthdate. Onceentered matches on meaning rather than an exact label.
• Unlabelled boxes. Payer portals are full of them. In testing, a field with no visible label at all matched at 86% on its internal name.
• Formats that differ per payer. One portal wants a date as MM/DD/YYYY, the next accepts eight characters. Onceentered writes what each box asks for rather than leaving a truncated value that looks correct.
• Confidence, shown. Where it is unsure it leaves the box empty and names it. A quietly guessed member ID is a denial, and a denial is a phone call.

It never submits

It fills the form, shows what it filled and what it left alone with the reason for each, and stops. A person reads the screen and a person submits. That is a permanent boundary rather than a feature waiting to be added — software that submits a medical form on someone's behalf owns the error and never the consequence.

What it costs

Free: one patient profile, unlimited fills — enough to carry one real registration through to a payer portal today.

$28 per month, or $280 per year — two months free

If a subscription lapses, extra profiles lock rather than delete. Nothing entered is ever destroyed.
