Early Out Self-Pay Services

Millennia vs. Early Out Self-Pay Services

Early out has been a trusted strategy for boosting cash flow and reducing bad debt by proactively engaging patients in the self-pay process before accounts become delinquent. Yet traditional healthcare early out options lack the innovation needed to meet dynamic patient needs and organizational efficiency goals. Millennia changes that, giving you a powerful solution for achieving both in one feature-rich platform.

PERFECTING PATIENT PAYMENT

Millennia Outperforms Traditional Early Out

Millennia is not an early out vendor but an extension of your in-house team that can fulfill the role more effectively and outperform outdated approaches.

Millennia’s Patient Payment Solution delivers better financial results than traditional early out collection strategies. Our solution combines technology, engagement intelligence and patient-focused services to increase patient revenue collection rates. Higher revenue collection rates lead to better cash flow, less bad debt, greater efficiency and exceptional patient financial experience.

Success and Results

On average, we produce results like:

  • A 182% increase in revenue for a dermatology practice in the Northeast and an 84% average increase for other dermatology offices across the country.

A Truly Patient-Centric Approach

Your patients are the heart of what you do, so we made them our focus. Our exclusive approach allows you to offer the best possible payment experience by meeting your patients where they are.

Engagement Intelligence

The more engaged your patients are in their healthcare payment journeys, the more likely they are to make their payments and do so in a timely manner. Our Patient Payment Solutions increases the likelihood of fast, in-full payment to support an efficient revenue cycle. Millennia helps create and sustain engagement with intelligence that creates hassle-free experiences for your patients.

Our platform’s engagement intelligence solutions include machine learning that customizes how we engage patients based on a patient’s previous behaviors. It considers factors like communication preferences and the times of prior interactions to produce targeted experiences. For example, if patients prefer paying by text, we use text to communicate. These more targeted and personalized communications increase the likelihood and speediness of patients making payments since they can do so in their preferred ways.

Digital Technology That Your Patients Want to Use

Your patients are busy people, too. They may not always be able to answer an early out call during business hours when your team is most likely to call them.

With Millennia as your partner, the inconvenience of missed calls goes away — for both your team and your patients. Our digital patient payment ecosystem offers patients a seamless experience with:

  • Multiple payment options, including text-to-pay, credit cards, ACH transfers, digital wallets and dynamic QR codes.
  • Easy-to-read statements that clearly display service details and provide transparency into patients’ self-pay or post-adjudication balances.
  • Enhanced digital security and encryption technology for confident payments.
  • Options to connect offline with a dedicated payment specialist who represents your organization.
  • patient payment portal with self-service capabilities.
  • Connectivity through any connected device.
  • Access to multiple support and payment options without the need to log in or create an account.

Plus, our patient payment portal integrates with the patient portal you offer. If you don’t currently have one, you don’t need to — our platform is an independent solution for payments that still integrates with your existing tools.

Live Support

Some patients may need a little more support with their payment journeys than others. Millennia ensures you can meet those needs with our “concierge support services”. Our payment specialists can handle inquiries on behalf of your organization as a white-label partner who uses your branding in every communication.

We offer live support through whatever channel your patients prefer — phone, chat or email. Our team brings the human touch to support interactions, reducing calls to your staff and freeing their time to focus on other revenue cycle tasks.
