Boston, October 26, 2017 – Vendors offering consumer-facing solutions to U.S. healthcare providers are changing the financial paradigm from one in which providers chased consumers for a payment post-service to one that engages individuals to take control of their unique financial circumstances well before an appointment is made. Vendors are advancing the financial experience through the creation of a “healthcare wallet,” designed to accommodate planning, saving, and spending for their unique needs. In short, vendors are harnessing the winds of change to power a system that recognizes individuals as healthcare consumers.
