About SurePayHealth™ Payment Processing
Staff Reporters
Consumer-driven health care [CDHC], high-deductible health plans [HDHPs], medical and health savings accounts [MSAs/HSAs] are changing the rules of revenue cycle management for medical practices, clinics, retail facilities and hospitals. In fact, compared to other industry segments, health care payment processing remains extremely inefficient; for example, the retail segment settles payments for less than two percent of revenue, and financial services settles payments for less than one percent. Some health economists even estimate that if health care could settle payments even for 10 percent of revenue, savings would exceed $100 billion.

Assessment
Accelerating the healthcare cash conversion cycle is a desirable business goal, especially if collection occurs at the point-of-contact. Nevertheless, all medical professionals should realize that their guiding principle should always be: Omnia pro Aegroto [all for the patient].
