A billing and payment platform called Paymentus asserts that it has doubled the number of healthcare provider solutions it provides while also adding more patient payment options.

The company has expanded its service for healthcare providers by becoming certified to post real-time bills on the Epic/MyChart patient interface.

In the United States, healthcare bills account for more personal debt than all other types of debt combined, according to the revelation.

“A recent analysis by US Bank found that the healthcare sector is the most challenging one in which to make a payment. Patients desire greater alternatives for making payments online, including fast payments through applications and the ability to use services like PayPal and Venmo.”

In order to allow patients to check a payment due date and finish the payment in the same MyChart environment they use to view health data, Paymentus claims to have improved its payments platform interface with electronic health records provider Epic and health information platform MyChart.

In order to provide patients more control over their money, the Paymentus EBPP platform also offers “additional flexible payment choices for patients supplied by third parties,” such as PayPal Credit and a variety of payment schedule options.

Dushyant Sharma, the founder and CEO of Paymentus, claimed that the healthcare system “may be daunting for patients.”

“Delivering straightforward billing and payment information directly through the MyChart portal and expanding the range of payment methods and options for patients helps mitigate the confusion often associated with healthcare bills and reduces missed payments and collection issues that can impact healthcare services,” the statement reads.
