ALPHARETTA, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today RelayHealth Financial® released RelayClearanceTM Plus 5.0, the company’s pre-service financial clearance solution – enhanced with new features to help streamline the pre-service clearance process for patients and provide a faster workflow for users. Key to this upgrade is an Eligibility Benefits Detail Viewer that gives users at-a-glance access to the data they need most, when they need it most. The result: RelayClearance Plus 5.0 assists healthcare providers in understanding a patient’s eligibility benefits quickly while helping to decrease rejections and denials, reduce incidents of identity theft and fraud, facilitate self-pay collections, and boost cash flow.
“We looked at most if not all of the patient financial clearance solutions in this market and studied how Patient Access staff were using them, where the bottlenecks were, and how long it took to clear a patient,” said John Holyoak, Director, Product Management, Financial Solutions for RelayHealth. “We took those observations and went back to the drawing board. We remapped the workflow. We reconsidered the user experience, and engineered a new heads-up consolidated display. The result is RelayClearance Plus 5.0, which we believe sets a new standard in eligibility verification and provides the industry's fastest way to clear a patient.”
Central to this new release is a completely redesigned Benefits Detail Viewer that provides:
- A streamlined layout that helps to minimize search time by bringing the most pertinent information to the top and consolidating the view, speeding visual access to frequently used and most-needed data.
- Specialized Medicare and Medicaid views that present the details relevant to specific business needs of Medicare/Medicaid processing.
- A new Patient Account Number (PAN) dropdown selection improves efficiency and provides insight into recent eligibility data by allowing users to toggle between multiple eligibility requests for different Patient Account Numbers under the same Medical Record Number.
This release is the fifth generation of RelayHealth Financial’s integrated solution suite for pre-service financial clearance. And now, thanks to RelayClearance’s new user experience, that process is more efficient than ever. Hosted in the cloud and provided as an on-demand software service, RelayClearance Plus helps hospitals and health systems accelerate reimbursement and optimize revenue, from registration through collections by performing unlimited patient eligibility checks, validating patient identity, and screening for charity/financial assistance; estimating patient financial responsibility and determining a guarantor’s ability and inclination to pay; and optimizing patient collections at the point of service.
