Sphere Partners with Dr. Leonardo for Online Payment Processing
Patients Pay Medical Bills
Through Their Doctor’s Personal Website
.
Sphere Payments, LLC (Sphere), parent of TrustCommerce and the leading provider of end-to-end integrated payments and security, today announced that it has partnered with Dr. Leonardo® to expand its presence in the medical online payments space.
Through this strategic partnership, Sphere and Dr. Leonardo will offer healthcare providers their own personal website with online payment functionality for outstanding medical bills that are a patient’s responsibility, i.e. deductibles, co-payments and non-covered expenses.
Pew Internet Research studies indicate that 81% of Americans search for health information online with many patients searching for their own healthcare providers and preferring to use credit cards when paying their outstanding medical bills. Dr. Leonardo’s unique eHealth Internet Presence platform allows doctors and related professionals to instantly create a personal PROVIDER-Site™ with appointment scheduling, patient portal access, education materials and now, online bill-payment using Sphere’s technology. Payments made online significantly reduce accounts receivable for individual providers, hospitals and practices.
Dr. Leonardo anticipates introduction of Sphere’s payment module by the start of the second quarter, 2019 and marks its entrance into the revenue cycle management segment of healthcare.
