Relief is available.
If you know where to find it.

In 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) introduced new regulations codified under Section 501(r) of the Internal Revenue Code mandating that a non-profit hospital is required to have financial assistance policies and follow reasonable billing and collections methods.

We’re here to connect people to the 4,000+ financial assistance programs in the U.S.

How we deliver value

We start by listening to your employees to identify the best path forward. Our bundled services vary depending on your workforce demographics, but may include:

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

Identify programs that offer free or reduced-cost care and uncover ways to resolve existing medical debt.

BILL NEGOTIATION

Engage in pre-service negotiations, review bills for accuracy and negotiate outstanding medical bills.

COLLECTIONS SUPPORT

Empower members to know their rights and ensure all regulations are being followed by collectors.
