Heart of Florida Health Center provides primary care in family, internal, pediatric medicines, maternity, and gynecology care. With 123 providers across various medical specialties providing care to over 110,000 patients a year, it can be challenging to ensure timely payments. healow Payment Services helps practices manage payments and collections in a single platform to minimize administrative stress.

“Before we implemented healow Payment Services, we had difficulty collecting timely payments, adding stress to our administrative and revenue teams. We wanted to ensure that patients could easily pay on time and that our revenue cycle team could operate efficiently, to minimize time spent on payment follow-ups,” said Maria Torres, chief operations officer for Heart of Florida Health Center. “Thanks to the integrated healow Pay features like automated text reminders, we saw a 21% increase in our payment collection for May 2023 alone. This reduced stress amongst our patients and staff while improving efficiencies within our revenue cycle operations.”

With healow Payment Services, Heart of Florida Health Center and other practices benefit from the following features:

  • Easy-to-use: healow CHECK-IN prompts patients to complete payments during the check-in process.
  • Payments: Practices can save a patient’s card on file, helping with the collection of outstanding balances.
  • Paperless reminders: Practices can send a text reminder on outstanding balances, eliminating paper statements and reducing statement costs.
  • Alleviates administrative burdens: When payments are completed, eClinicalWorks automatically applies them to the RCM system, streamlining the organization for the billing department.
  • 13 modalities to collect payments: Practices have several ways to collect payments from patients, resulting in faster collections such as Kiosk, text-to-pay, on the patient portal, card on file, and more.
