Cedar co-founder and CEO Florian Otto said: “As the consumer influence on healthcare continues to rise, it’s more critical than ever to deliver a payment and engaging experience that turns patients into advocates and makes it as easy as possible for them to interact with providers.
“We are excited to share the next evolution of our platform, which further brings the modern, digital consumer experience to the forefront of patient billing.”
The new platform utilises advanced data science, machine learning and smart segmentation to provide comprehensive information on patient communication and payment preferences.
The new enhancements in Cedar Pay include Truly Unified Billing and Dynamic Personalized Segmentation.
The Truly Unified Billing service enables the patients to view all transactions at one place as well as bills of other family members linked with their account.
Under the Dynamic Personalized Segmentation feature, Cedar Pay allows to utilise additional opportunities to personalise the patient journey.
Additionally, it simplifies the payments by enabling access to the online dashboard by entering email or phone number.
Cedar advisor and former executive vice president and Montefiore System CFO Joel Perlman said: “Providers are constantly challenged with establishing a streamlined approach to engaging patients when it comes to the billing process.
“This is a critical pain point in healthcare as organisations look to optimise time with patients and drive satisfaction.
“Cedar’s new capabilities now allow providers to easily deliver consumer-friendly billing communications that drive patient engagement and increase collections on the backend.”
