Access Patient Payments extracts transaction data from scanned images of paper-based patient payment coupons/statements as well as check image transaction information to generate EDI 835 cash posting files ready for import to practice management (PM), hospital information systems (HIS) or patient billing systems.

The system extracts the serial number, check amount and date directly from the check. Additionally, the claim ID, account number and patient name can be lifted from the payment coupon or statement.

The information is archived within the system and is fully searchable from within the HPAC Payment Portal by fields such as date, payer, check number and amount.

Access Patient Payment automation can be an add-on service to EOB Conversion or as a stand-alone service. Additionally, when an existing lockbox is present at a service bureau, financial institution or healthcare provider, it is possible to import these files and images into HPAC to be archived.
