Patient Payment Plan™
Medical providers can immediately increase their revenues
with a new service that allows them to deduct monthly payments
quickly, automatically and directly from their patients'
checking accounts.
The
Problem: Collecting Money From Patients
Even
with insurance claims a significant portion of a doctor's income
comes directly from their patients. The problem is that many of
these patients do not have the money to pay for treatment right
away. This immediately forces doctors to either extend credit to
patients or refuse to treat them. By extending credit the doctor
takes the personal risk that the patient will never pay, which
added up over time can total tens of thousands of dollars in
potential profits each year. By turning new clients away they
slow the growth of their practices and deny the potential
revenue boost. It is a no-win situation: either turn away
business and lose money, or accept business that they know there
is a good chance they will not get paid and lose money.
It is a well known fact that not every patient visit is covered
100% by insurance. Now realize that statistics show 31% of
Americans do not carry any health insurance at all. These
patients have no other option but to pay for medical treatment
out of their pocket. Statistics have proven on average that
doctors only collect 49% of the money their patients owe them.
What if doctors were guaranteed they could collect 98% of the
money they were owed?
How Bad Is This Problem For You?
Every
situation is different and may be better or worse than the
national average. Even if just 15% of a doctor's patients do not
pay, that represents a large amount of money each year. The
important part is this: that 15% represents lost profits.
Doctors often do not consider how much money they are leaving on
the table by using their current methods to handle this
situation. You can take a moment to use our online calculator to
see how even a slight percentage can add up to significant lost
profits annually. The calculator will show how much money a
doctor is losing by extending risky credit and by turning away
new potential patients.
The Solution: The Patient Payment Plan™
Finally, there is a solution to this problem. The Patient
Payment Plan™ (PPP) is revolutionizing the way doctors across
the country collect money from their patients. It allows them to
collect a significantly higher portion of the money that they
have already earned, in most cases 98% of that money. All of
this can be done without alienating or harassing patients, and
without burdensome overhead expenses. In fact, the PPP has no
ongoing expense or cost to the doctor. Now patients have the
ability to make affordable monthly payments without the need to
apply for credit or go through a lengthy approval process. These
payments are then automatically taken out of their bank account
each month until their bill is paid.
Extremely Easy To Implement Into Your Practice
Here is how it works. A doctor presents an explanation flyer
provided by us to the patient explaining the PPP. The patient
literally takes less than a minute to fill out and sign a simple
one page agreement. This agreement allows the doctor to draft
the patient's bank account for a specific amount with a service
fee added each month until the bill is paid. The doctor then
forwards that agreement to our office. Our proprietary software
package allows us to print checks on behalf of the doctor's
patients on the same day every month and deliver them to their
office for immediate deposit. It is that simple. There is no
invoicing to handle, no waiting for checks to be mailed in, no
embarrassing follow-up calls for staff members to make requiring
them to badger or threaten patients for money. No mess. No fuss.
Doctors just get their money on time for a change.
