The Upward Trend in Patient Financial Responsibility

In 2020, the average consumer spent considerably more on healthcare than they did in 2016. According to a survey (conducted from January 2020 to July 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic) published by the Kaiser Family Foundation, on average, workers contributed $5,588 toward the cost of family coverage.

Using a Portal to Support the Trend

This trend in consumerism means supporting ways for patients to make payments conveniently is steadily growing in importance and has a significant impact on your bottom line. This is where the patient portal can help.
