Payment Collection Automation for Healthcare & Allied Health
Transform your healthcare & allied health payment collection automation with custom automation built by Harvard-educated experts. Measurable outcomes in 4-8 weeks, backed by 98% client retention.
Expected Outcomes
Measurable results our healthcare & allied health clients achieve with payment collection automation.
Automated item number validation and claim submission reduces the error rate that leads to rejected Medicare and health fund claims, accelerating reimbursement.
Consistent, sensitive payment reminders with easy payment links significantly increase the collection rate on outstanding patient gap payments and private fees.
Automated invoice generation at the point of service eliminates the scenario where appointments are delivered but never invoiced due to admin oversight.
The Challenge
Common payment collection automation challenges facing healthcare & allied health businesses.
Medicare claim rejections are not followed up promptly, and thousands of dollars in rejected claims sit uncollected for months before anyone reviews the rejection reports.
Patient gap payments are not chased consistently because reception staff feel uncomfortable making collection calls and prioritise other tasks.
Some appointments are delivered but never invoiced because the clinician does not complete their notes promptly and the invoice generation process depends on manual triggers.
Reconciliation between appointments delivered, invoices generated, and payments received is done monthly at best, meaning revenue leakage goes undetected for weeks.
