    Best Practices for Improving Patient Collections

    1 min readBy Billorarcm Editorial Team

    Patient responsibility has more than doubled over the last decade. If you are not collecting at point of service, you are leaving a lot of money on the table.

    Collect Estimates at Point of Service

    Use real-time eligibility and benefits to estimate patient responsibility and collect at check-in.

    Offer Multiple Payment Channels

    Online portals, text-to-pay, and stored cards convert better than mailed statements.

    Communicate Early and Often

    The longer a patient balance ages, the harder it is to collect. Hit them at 0, 14, and 30 days.

    Payment Plans for Larger Balances

    Auto-enroll patients with balances over $500 into payment plans rather than letting them go delinquent.
