Ophthalmology practices care a lot about the patient’s experience throughout the patient’s journey, but often, patients go through various confusions when they have to make the payment.
Nearly 40% of healthcare consumers need help understanding the medical billing and payment procedure. Even if you provide an outstanding service to the patient until the moment of paying the bill, if there are problems in the payment procedure, the patient will not be satisfied with your service.
Therefore, it is essential to eliminate payment confusion from your practice to keep your patient 100% happy with your service.
In this episode, Sean Hanlon, Chief Executive Officer at CoFi, Inc., discusses the strategies and ideas for streamlining patient payment experience in ophthalmic practices.
