The CliniCard, Inc. Announced Today That Health Portal Solutions, Inc. Has Demonstrated the PatientID+ Solution at the 31st Annual Self-Insurance Institute of America Conference and Expo
Reuters Newswire
PHOENIX, Oct. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — The CliniCard, Inc., a pioneer in Advanced Card-Based Information and Payment Integration at the Point of Sale; Health Portal Solutions, Inc., an industry leader in Health Data Management for Self-Insureds; and Merchant360, the Leader in Near Field Communication technology (NFC) have announced an Alliance today to significantly improve the Patient Registration, Authentication and Payment experience for all Healthcare Stakeholders.
The solution is called PatientID+ and was demonstrated at the 31st Annual Self-Insurance Institute of America Conference and Expo, held in Phoenix, AZ, October 9th and 10th. SIIA’s National Educational Conference & Expo is the world’s largest event dedicated exclusively to the self-insurance/alternative risk transfer industry.
PatientID+ allows healthcare providers to perform PIN-secure identity verification, eligibility screening, and payment at intake. Identity, benefit, and payment information is securely stored on the PatientID+ system, which could be through a mobile contactless tag or in the patient’s mobile phone equipped with Near Field Communication technology (NFC).
Doug Broeska, President of The CliniCard, Inc., said in a statement that “it’s no secret that the medical adjudication and payments industry is seriously flawed and inefficient. This three-party Alliance serves to integrate the services of a sophisticated payment platform with a large Patient and Provider population to allow an integrated end-to-end service to happen with a single swipe of a card or a personal hand-held device at the point-of-service. The CliniCard’s backend intelligence is really what does it all in the cloud.”
“The goal is to get rid of those forms we all dislike to fill out when we get to the doctor’s office, thereby speeding up the process, making it more convenient for the patient and increasing data accuracy. Having one solution that can act as my insurance card, my identity across multiple systems, and payment card is bound to cut costs and improve service,” says Steve McRae, CEO of Merchant360, Inc.
“We are excited about the expanded capabilities the PatientID+ card brings to our health portal. Streamlining health data from many sources and delivering it to multi-users in a secure environment is our specialty. The card will enhance our user interface, giving members, providers, and payers a solution for further streamlining the process of sharing and managing health data and payment information and provide a complementary solution to our portal technology for reducing time spent on administrative tasks, cut customer service call volume, and tighten efficiencies overall,” said James Burkholder, CEO of Health Portal Solutions, Inc.
