Seacoast Laboratory Data Systems Announces New Patient Payment Plan Module for SurroundLab AR

Seacoast is proud to announce the recent release of our new Patient Payment Plan module for SurroundLab AR. This new module provides laboratories with another payment option to offer their patients with high co-pays, deductibles or patients that self-pay for services. This new module integrates seamlessly with our web-based patient portal, Easy Pay, allowing patients access to view and track their payment schedule and history. Patients are reminded of upcoming payments automatically, via email, saving you time and money. In addition, all payments processed via the Easy Pay portal are automatically posted in SurroundLab AR, saving processing steps and increasing operational efficiency.

The Patient Payment Plan module provides flexible payment plan options allowing you to help your patients find a comfortable payment arrangement within your organization’s collection policies. For example, you can limit the number of allowed payment months, or set a minimum amount for which the patient arrangement can be offered, by using the configuration settings that you control.

“We understand the great financial pressure that labs are now feeling with the implementation of CLFS 2018; our new Patient Payment Plan Module is aimed at helping labs improve their collections for patient owed balances,” explained John Herring, President and CEO of Seacoast Laboratory Data Systems.
