SwervePay Health, Summit Software Technologies Align to Provide One-Click Patient Payment Capabilities for EHR Users

SwervePay Health and Summit Software Technologies, LLC, have entered a strategic alliance that will provide physician practices with one-click payment collection functionality through their electronic health record (EHR) systems. Summit will connect SwervePay’s cloud-based payment processing technology to its clients’ existing workflow, maximizing practice cash flow and efficiency.

SwervePay Health closes the technology gap with a suite of practice- and patient-friendly technology tools that help eliminate the challenges associated with collections at the point of service and upon determination of patient responsibility amounts. Its ePayment feature leverages text messaging technology to immediately notify patients of outstanding balances while providing one-click access to online payment processing. Other SwervePay services include eCollections, which improve practice profitability and reduce bad debt with automated payment plans, and eStatements, which eliminate the cost of collections by delivering electronic statements by text or email.

“SwervePay and Summit are both dedicated to helping physician practices leverage innovative technology to solve some of the most complex practice management issues,” said Jaeme Adams, President, SwervePay Health. “By embedding our payment processing tools into EHR workflows, Summit enables its physician clients to rapidly increase cash flow by accelerating collections and significantly reducing appointment no-shows.”

The partnership with SwervePay Health fits well with Summit’s existing business, which focuses primarily on developing workflow solutions for all aspects of physician practices running on the GE Centricity platform.

“The powerful combination of Summit and SwervePay will drive hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual savings for even small practices,” said Summit Software Technologies President Eric Whicker. “By integrating SwervePay into the EHR workflow, our clients will spend less time managing collections and more time with patients, where their time really counts.”
