Dentrix Eligibility Pro blends EDI eligibility with portal-sourced enhanced benefits and writes the result into Dentrix coverage tables. Azops Dental is a standalone verification service that works payer portals, AI voice calls, and requested fax benefits, with human fallback and human review on every verification. Here is how they stack up.
Key takeaways
- Dentrix Eligibility Pro runs EDI eligibility (Essentials) plus portal-sourced enhanced benefits in the Pro tier, including patient history, frequency limits, and procedure-level coverage, with deductibles and benefits written to Dentrix coverage tables.
- Dentrix Eligibility Pro doesn't appear to offer AI voice calling or a human verification-fallback team. It blends electronic and portal data inside the Dentrix PMS.
- Azops Dental goes past portal data: provider-line AI voice calls, requested fax benefits, human fallback, and human QA on every verification, with sources kept for audit.
- Azops Dental supports custom verification forms by specialty and one-off questions from the appointment note, and our proprietary connector writes results into Dentrix and 21 other dental software systems.
- Azops Dental is dedicated to insurance verification and works with 22 dental software systems. Dentrix Eligibility Pro is an eligibility tier inside the Dentrix ecosystem.
What Dentrix Eligibility Pro covers
Dentrix Eligibility Pro is more than pure EDI. The Essentials tier runs electronic eligibility, and the Pro tier adds portal-sourced enhanced benefits, including patient history, frequency limits, and procedure-level coverage, then writes deductibles and benefits straight into Dentrix coverage tables. For a Dentrix practice, that is a tight, native fit, and the portal-sourced data goes deeper than a basic electronic summary.
Where the two approaches differ
Even with portal enhancement, Dentrix Eligibility Pro's data sources are electronic eligibility and portals. It doesn't appear to run AI voice agents calling payer provider lines, and we couldn't find any sign of a human team that finishes the verifications those channels can't. Where a portal is missing a detail or a payer is hard to reconcile, the gap stays open.
Azops Dental closes those gaps. After portal work, an Azops Dental AI voice agent calls the payer provider line, requests a fax benefit breakdown where available, and a HIPAA-trained human specialist finishes any remaining questions and reviews the sources behind every verification before it ships. Azops Dental keeps the fax PDF, portal screenshots, and call transcript so a result can be audited or used to contest a denial.
For example, a payer portal might show a $2,000 annual maximum while the carrier’s fax shows $1,500. Both fields contain an answer, but the answers disagree. Azops Dental compares available fax, portal and carrier-call information, flags the contradiction and brings it into a carrier call for clarification alongside missing information. Comparing populated values adds a safeguard against portal/fax inconsistencies that would otherwise pass through a missing-fields-only check.
Azops Dental supports up to 80 custom questions per form, covering the procedures and appointments the practice handles. This configured checklist is part of its managed verification workflow.
Dental software integrations and write-back
Dentrix Eligibility Pro writes deductibles, maximums and coinsurance into Dentrix coverage tables. It also retrieves procedure-level coverage, frequency limits and patient history, and provides standardized PDFs and appointment-book status indicators. Official documentation
Azops Dental supports 22 dental software systems, with custom end-to-end integrations that handle detailed verification information and organize it inside your practice's software:
- Frequency limitations and code-level coverage percentages
- Downgrades, deductibles, and annual or lifetime maximums
- Patient treatment and claim history
- Benefit breakdown PDFs and appointment notes
- Plan/group matching, duplicate prevention, and organized documentation
The supported systems are Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, CareStack, Curve Dental, Denticon, Dolphin, Ortho2, Tops (cloud), OrthoTrac, WinOMS, Cloud 9, PracticeWorks, SoftDent, Easy Dental, DentiMax, Oryx, TDO, tab32, iDentalSoft, DSN and XLDent.
Detailed integration walkthroughs show how Azops Dental organizes verification information in the supported dental software. The Open Dental connector, for example, uses the native two-way API for PDFs, notes and employer/group benefit tables. Field mappings depend on the system; a human reviewer checks every verification before delivery.
Standalone service versus PMS tier
Dentrix Eligibility Pro is an eligibility tier inside the Dentrix PMS ecosystem. Azops Dental is a standalone verification service, and our proprietary connector writes results into 22 dental software systems, Dentrix included. For practices on Dentrix, Eligibility Pro is the native option. Azops Dental is the option that adds phone and human channels and isn't tied to one PMS.
Compliance and commercial model
Azops Dental is SOC 2 certified and HIPAA compliant, and prices as a flat monthly fee for unlimited verifications. We couldn't find a published SOC 2 status for Dentrix Eligibility Pro.
Pricing and predictability
Dentrix Eligibility Pro does not publish a price. There is no public number for the Pro tier anywhere, and getting one means a sales call (1-866-955-5694). The model is usage-metered: you either pay per enhanced request or buy a monthly package with an overage charge once you pass the included amount, and you are billed whenever a request returns enhanced data. Basic electronic eligibility is bundled into Dentrix Ascend, but the enhanced Pro data that drives a full breakdown is the part you pay for per use.
A per-request model means your cost tracks your schedule. A busy month, or a stretch where you re-check patients as appointments move, pushes your bill up, and a monthly package still charges overage the moment you pass the included requests. It is hard to know in advance what a given month will cost.
Azops Dental charges a flat monthly fee based on your practice type, with unlimited patients and unlimited verifications. You can verify a patient once, or verify the same patient five times as appointments shift or deductibles change, and the price stays exactly the same. There are no per-request fees and no overage. Pricing is predictable and transparent, starting at $325 per month. You can see our exact transparent pricing here.

Azops Dental's pricing calculation formula
How Azops Dental's price is calculated
This is the pricing calculation formula for Azops Dental. Azops Dental is a flat monthly subscription priced by practice type. General, pediatric and perio, endodontic and oral surgery practices pay per treating provider they bill for: add up, for each billed provider, the number of them times the per-provider rate below. Orthodontic practices pay by monthly new-patient exam volume in flat tiers. Unlimited verifications for every patient are included, and there is never a per-verification fee.
Your price follows your practice type, not anyone's academic title. Only general, pediatric and perio practices bill for hygienists. Endodontic and oral surgery practices are billed on the doctor alone, and Azops Dental never charges for front-desk staff or technicians.
Benefit-table write-back is included in every rate below, where our proprietary connector writes the full benefit breakdown directly into your dental software. Those rates cover the primary plan for every new patient and every new plan. Two optional add-ons are priced separately: primary and secondary, which verifies up to two plans per patient, and unlimited eligibility, where we confirm eligibility for every appointment, new or existing, through payer portals and carrier calls rather than EDI.
For orthodontic practices the tier is set from a three-month rolling average of new-patient exams on monthly plans, and a six-month rolling average on yearly plans.
| Practice type and billed providers | Primary only | Secondary add-on | Eligibility add-on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Orthodontics (by new-patient exams per month) | |||
| 1–35 exams/month | $325 | +$65 | +$65 |
| 36–60 exams/month | $490 | +$100 | +$130 |
| 61–90 exams/month | $650 | +$130 | +$130 |
| 91–140 exams/month | $845 | +$165 | +$130 |
| 141+ exams/month | Custom | Custom | Custom |
| General, Pediatric & Perio | |||
| Dentist | $325 | +$65 | +$40 |
| Dental hygienist | $65 | +$35 | +$20 |
| Endodontics | |||
| Endodontist | $550 | +$50 | +$50 |
| Oral Surgery | |||
| Oral & maxillofacial surgeon | $845 | +$65 | +$65 |
| Multi-specialty & DSO | |||
| Any mix of the above | Custom | Custom | Custom |
Example: a general, pediatric or perio practice with 3 dentists and 2 hygienists pays 3 × $325 + 2 × $65 = $1,105/month for primary plans. An orthodontic practice whose three-month rolling average falls in the 61–90 exam tier pays $650/month for primary plans. Endodontic and oral surgery practices are billed on the doctor alone. Start with a 10-day pilot with unlimited verifications. No yearly commitment.
