 Often the waiting room is overflowing with patients, and time to address collection on receivables does not come easily. Your office visits range from the routine to the immediate, with costs varying just as widely. Many patients don't have a credit card with an available balance to make their payment and accepting a paper check is a gamble. What about insurance? Many don’t have it and a payment plan is a necessity. Those that do have insurance are subject to a co-pay and require payment at the time of service. In addition, many procedures are too expensive for lump sum payments, and patients request a payment plan. First ACH can help.
Benefits:
- Direct debit payments allow for funds to be debited directly from customer bank accounts and deposited into yours electronically. It makes more sense. No need for checks or credit cards.
- For those who can’t pay their whole bill immediately, offer the convenience of a payment plan through recurring payments. The payments can then be made incrementally and over time; you program the interval, date, and frequency. This allows for you to establish patient financing options on your terms.
- This set it and forget it methodology of recurring payments is convenient for you and your patients, leading to less time and expense in managing receivables as well as greater customer retention for the simplicity it offers.
- Store patient contact and account information using the customer database. This is convenient for charging repeat patients.
- Offer an alternate method of payment to credit cards and paper check.
- No more trips to the bank, no more keeping track of paper checks, and easier overall receivables management.
- Save money. ACH transactions through First ACH are cheaper than both credit cards and the competition.
