Monday 6 June 2011 14:15 CET | News

US payment processing company Electronic Payment Exchange (EPX) has been chosen by NCR Corporation , a US provider of self-service hospital check-in, as its preferred payment provider for NCR Healthcare.

As a result, EPX has integrated its payment processing functionality with NCR MediKiosk and NCR Patient Portal self-service service. Conifer Health Solutions, a subsidiary of Tenet Healthcare Corporation, and Blair Medical Associates (BMA) are the first NCR customers to roll out the combined offering. Both organizations have deployed NCR MediKiosk for self-service patient registration and extended the functionality to online bill payment, which is available to patients through their portals.

How it works

Patients are directed to check in at a kiosk or on a tablet to identify themselves by swiping a credit card or driver’s license along with using the kiosk’s touch screen to enter a personal identifier. Once checked in, they can update demographic and insurance information and sign consent forms electronically in a secure network. During this time, patients are also prompted to make copayments and pay balances directly on the kiosk via credit card.
