From soup to nuts, all the payment options your patrons could ever want.

For many people, arranging to pay legal or medical fees is a daunting task. Deciding where the money will come from can be a highly emotional challenge. There's no need to hassle with a loan or dip into savings. Now you can extend credit to your clients -- without extending credit. Accepting a variety of credit cards is convenient and often the preferable way to pay bills. No matter what your area of expertise, Retriever Services can customize a credit card processing solution that's right for you.

Collecting overdue bills can be a slow process. That's why accepting credit cards makes so much sense for your business. With Retriever Services, you get paid within 48 hours of settlement for Visa and MasterCard transactions - not the 75 days it takes the average client to pay their bill. And accepting credit cards reduces the risk of processing bad checks or not receiving a payment at all.

Solutions For Medical Practices

The administrative side of every healthcare practice has become more complex and costly. Too much staff and practitioner time is absorbed in non-medical activities.

Retriever Services can make available a medical program using technology to simplify healthcare administrative procedures that is a complete electronic solution for benefit verification, claims submission and payment processing

This medical program replaces typical paper-based claims processing with more efficient and accurate electronic submission. In less than 45 seconds you can enter a complete claim into the terminal and submit it electronically. The terminal is easy to use, with a "soft-key" prompting sequence that leads users through the process of filing claims. Payment is then processed and received in 7-21 days, on average.

Benefit verification has always been a laborious, time-consuming process, and it has become more difficult with the growth of managed care. This program dramatically simplifies the process of verifying patient benefits.

The program allows you to verify a patient's benefit eligibility by swiping their insurance card through a point-of-sale terminal, or through a simple keying procedure. The terminal then does the work. Within 20 seconds, a printout of the patient's eligibility is produced, providing you with patient information, insurance data, a primary provider's name, and co-payment information. The time you save allows you to focus on managing more important things - the health of your patients.

The same terminal that verifies benefit eligibility and submits claims can also be used to process patient payments. All major credit cards can be accepted. Patients appreciate the convenience of in-office payment options, and you improve cash flow and save billing expenses.

The program features Visa Patient Easy Pay, to allow you to bill a patient's Visa or MasterCard account directly for balances not covered by insurance, even when you don't know the exact amount at the time of service. Patients can pre-authorize the amounts and the time periods covered. It's perfect for single visits or recurring treatment fees, and it's the most convenient way to eliminate patient receivables and bad debt.

The program can increase medical office efficiency, and it can improve the financial status of a practice dramatically. Users report a dramatic reduction in accounts receivable, and a reduction in average collection time. Staff is able to spend less time on paperwork and more time handling patients.
