Marina Bigsby, Chief Customer Experience Officer at AccessOne, focuses on providing financial products and services to help make healthcare more affordable for patients and improve the physicians' revenue cycle management. The aim is to provide more transparency and payment options upfront to avoid situations where patients forgo needed care. Using AccessOne's technology and mobile payment solution, providers collect payments faster and proactively identify and address operational inefficiencies and staffing challenges.
Marina explains, "We're a technology company. We partner with our providers and look at their various situations. Their situation might be that they have a pocket of their population with high debt problems, or maybe there is a staff shortage or some other operational efficiency challenge. We're designing a product that works for them. Our platform is highly configurable, and we built something that works for them and helps them collect more so they can allocate funds to wherever they need. We have a proprietary funding option, so they can work with us to accelerate cash quickly into their RCM or manage risk differently. So that's really what we're doing. We're working with them to collect more so they can help more patients."
"It's a time savings so that they get cash faster, which is always good, but it's also a time savings from an operational savings. So responses are great -- we send out a text and our MobilePay product is a replacement, a complete replacement of a piece of paper. Awareness of the text helps people say that even if they don't want to pay through the text, they know there's a bill and know it earlier than they normally would have, so they can pay it however they'd like. Whether in a portal or through our text, that awareness is increased. There are lots of glowing reviews around that product."
