One-third of U.S. workers now have high-deductible insurance plans—and most of the new insurance plans being sold on the Affordable Care Act (ACA) insurance exchanges will be in the “bronze” category with higher out-of-pocket costs, according to a report in the August 2013 Health Affairs.
Are high deductibles putting you at risk?
Practice owners often fear that patients with high deductibles are less likely to pay, but the problem is not necessarily the patient. Both patients and providers benefit from knowing the financial impact of procedures up front. Blindsiding patients with massive bills after the fact is a recipe for resentment, foot-dragging, and nonpayment. Providing accurate, complete coverage information and offering payment options before providing care empowers your patients to make more informed and responsible decisions.
In this webinar, Jim Larson, a Fellow in the American College of Medical Practice Executives, will discuss:
- How high deductibles work
- Trends of high-deductible insurance
- Revolutionizing how we collect from patients
- How to analyze, design, and implement your game-changing strategy
