Why an EHR Integration Matters for Your Practice
Why an EHR Integration Matters for Your Practice
One of the most significant pain points for practices is the immense effort and cost involved in collecting patient payments. Traditional payment collection methods are time-consuming, strain resources, and lead to unsustainable administrative burdens. When practices add in manually pulling and entering information into an EHR, staff frustration abounds.
Our goal at PayGround is to remove as many manual steps from the process to collect a patient payment. One of the most common frustrations we hear is that a payment platform does not integrate and automate directly with a provider’s EHR, or the payment platform currently available on their EHR is difficult to use.
Weaknesses of Many EHR Integrations
- Complicated Setup
- High transaction fees and add-on costs
- Difficult support experiences
The PayGround Solution
When practices automate patient payments via an EHR/EMR integration, the benefits are apparent within the first few days. The benefits of using PayGround as a payment platform include:
- Accelerated cash collections
- Payment plan editing
- Simplicity of costs
- Workflow automation
- No nickel and diming
- Real people at PayGround HQ will support you the entire way
In fact, over half of patients will pay their balance within the first 30 days. With traditional paper statements, collection has typically only just begun at this point. Patients also prefer digital payments, which makes PayGround a win-win for all.
