A Cash Pay Health Plan is easy to implement. You don’t need to pay exorbitant Care Navigation fees anymore when it can be done on a self-service basis with a click of a button.
Suppose Joe Sixpack, who lives in Corpus Christi, needs an MRI. Where can he go to get a low cash price MRI his Direct Primary Care physician has ordered?
Within seconds, and before you can say “What’s Taking So Long?”, Joe finds he can get his MRI for $533 at Radiology Associates – 1812 South Alameda – Corpus Christi, TX 78404.
He makes his appointment online, and once confirmed he emails his confirmation to his employer who then loads a virtual debit card in the amount of $533 made payable only to Radiology Associates.
Joe pays nothing for his MRI. There is no balance billing issues. There are no claims to file. His employer saves money because cash pricing is always better than insurance pricing. Everyone wins.
It’s going to get easier as the market progresses as Cash Pay Health Plans are becoming more popular. Artificial intelligence is the pathway to better and more efficient health care delivery.
MdSave is one vendor helping the Joe Sixpack’s out there. There are other vendors to choose from.
Plan sponsors would be wise to bid out Care Navigation services for best value rather than take on the first vendor coming through the door.
