Payments and Patient Financing
Read balances and ledger activity, collect in your own product, and record the payment on the patient account.
The Challenge
Payment and financing products need to know what a patient owes before they can collect it, and the practice needs the payment recorded on the ledger afterwards. Without a connection to the practice system, both steps are typed in by hand.
How CRMBridge Solves It
CRMBridge gives your product the patient balance, billing detail and account aging in one shape, with a live balance lookup for the moment of payment.
After you collect, post the payment back to the patient account so the ledger in the practice system stays correct. Payment write-back is not available on every practice system; ask us which ones your customers need.
