Clearing the Air: Transparency, Trust and the Patient Financial Experience
Wednesday, July 27th, 2022 | 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM CT
As patients’ responsibility for out-of-pocket healthcare costs continues to increase, they want and need cost transparency and more convenient payment options. Starting the financing conversation early and continuing it at all points of patient contact—when scheduling appointments, during check-in and checkout, on patient or client forms, and on the provider’s website and social media—helps build trust and satisfaction by providing a consistent experience and easy access to information about patients’ payment options. In this webinar, we will be discussing the importance of cost transparency and the need for convenient ways for patients to pay their medical bills. We will also discuss how enhancing the patient’s financial experience can help providers build trust and drive satisfaction and loyalty.
