ATLANTA, Sept. 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Paya, a leading provider of integrated payment and commerce solutions, has announced that it has partnered with CoverMe, a Software-as-a-Service application for hospitals and long-term care providers. Through the partnership, CoverMe will increase efficiency for healthcare providers in processing payments, as well as give providers the ability to offer patients and their insurers more flexibility in paying for medical services.
Paya’s payments technology will integrate directly into CoverMe’s software suite that is currently used by hospitals and other healthcare providers. The partnership will give CoverMe’s healthcare partners the ability to process and track payments from patients and customers in real time. It will also allow providers to enhance their customer service capabilities to patients by offering increased flexibility and efficiency in paying their medical bills.
“This partnership will deliver Paya’s comprehensive, end-to-end payments solution to CoverMe’s extensive network of hospital and long-term care providers,” said Mark Engels, Paya’s Chief Revenue Officer. “With the continued shift toward digital and contactless payments for healthcare services, particularly amid the COVID-19 pandemic, our technology allows patients to seamlessly pay for the services they need, and helps providers with business continuity.”
“Paya’s technology will significantly benefit our healthcare clients,” said Gregg Phillips, CEO and Founder of CoverMe. “Patients and their insurers will be able to seamlessly make digital payments for medical services, while providers will be able to access and update this information in real time, all within their existing software suites. Our partnership with Paya makes the payments process more seamless and efficient for all parties involved.”
Paya’s partnership with CoverMe represents its continued commitment to offering tailored solutions to industries, such as healthcare, that have traditionally been underserved by integrated payments options. In April 2020, Paya also partnered with enterprise healthcare solutions provider Healthfully to integrate its technology, enabling Healthfully’s clients to accept payments for online, remote, and in-person services.
