Description:
Healthcare consumerization is a topic discussed often in the context of patient retention, access, and satisfaction but what does the consumerization of healthcare mean for medical billing? There are significant implications for medical billing companies as medical providers recognize that patient expectations for self-service, convenience, and digital access extend all the way through the patient financial experience and are looking for billing partners who understand this, too. This session will explore best practices for meeting the expectations of patients as consumers and the benefits for medical billing companies and the providers they serve.
