MGMA Business Solutions: Claude Royster on Improving the Patient Financial Experience
Manage episode 453569164 series 1260959
In this episode of the MGMA Business Solutions Podcast, host Daniel Williams sits down with Claude Royster, Vice President and General Manager of Health and Wellness at Care Credit. They discuss how Care Credit can help medical practices and their patients navigate the complexities of healthcare financing, especially as annual deductibles and FSA resets approach. Royster shares insights on the importance of educating patients on their financial options and the role practices can play in facilitating those conversations.
Key Takeaways:
- Patients often underestimate their annual healthcare costs, which can lead to delayed or foregone care. Care Credit aims to educate patients on the lifetime costs of healthcare and provide financing options to make care more accessible.
- "We have continued to work towards educating both patients and providers, but also really give products that give that optionality to patients to be able to make choices now and get the care that they need when they need it."
- Practices can partner with Care Credit to offer a "frictionless" financing experience for patients, where they can pre-qualify for credit in seconds using a QR code or mobile app.
- This benefits practices by reducing administrative burdens, improving cash flow, and allowing them to focus on patient care rather than collections.
- Care Credit measures success through metrics like patient satisfaction, revenue growth, and expense reduction for practices.
