ACH Can Lower Costs
An EFT is an electronic funds transfer where the claim is deposited directly into a medical/dental provider’s bank account. It eliminates the need to take anything to the bank to be deposited and cuts down on the amount of staff time needed to process claim payments. EFT claim payments are ideal for medical practices of any size, especially smaller ones where time and personnel are at a premium. Switching to ACH, or EFT, as it’s also known, gives practices the opportunity to save as much as 50% on claim payments.
Save the hassle and added expense of writing and mailing a check. With ACH, businesses—including medical offices—can lower overall costs vs. other payment types.
Dental Providers
According to the American Dental Association, an “EFT is the best way to ensure secure and timely claim payments from dental benefit plans.” Check out success stories by several dentists and start to benefit from EFTs.
Medical Practices
According to the 2021 CAQH Index, more than 74% of medical claim payments were made electronically, an increase of 4% over the prior year. The increased use is attributed to practitioners spending down time reconciling past due payments, and billing more regularly for telemedicine visits to help offset the loss of revenue experienced early in the pandemic.
