Over the past two decades, in an effort to digitize healthcare payments, payers have amassed a variety of systems and point solutions that resulted in overly complex and costly payment infrastructures. Although the infrastructure was built with the best intentions, the unintended consequences led to complexity and fragmentation: Technology bloat, regulatory and compliance challenges, interoperability issues and myriad security concerns. By migrating to a holistic platform, organizations can reduce their risk and eliminate unintended consequences associated with a complex and fragmented infrastructure. In doing so, health insurance providers can now migrate to a consolidated infrastructure that reduces risk, lowers costs, and improved member and provider satisfaction all while increasing your digital footprint and reducing the total number of printed and distributed documentation.
