Collecting from Patients Can be a Nightmare
The average healthcare provider only collects 49% of what patients owe
Even the patients that DO pay are EXTREMELY SLOW!
How Do YOU Deal With Slow-Pays?
Collection Agency? Up to 50% of whatever they collect May damage patient/doctor rapport
In-house Financing? You become a banker! Payments trickle in over 60-120 days
Write it off? How much are you losing each year?
Ask Yourself...
What would it be worth for you to get the money that you have already earned ...on the same day of the month, every month… without having to send a single invoice?
Our clients will tell you… It’s worth thousands!
