On the need for simplifying and creating a new patient collections process, Kareo Chief Marketing Officer Rob Pickell said, "The average deductible in the U.S. is now more than $1,000, with patients spending higher out-of-pocket amounts than ever before. This means that patient balances can now make up 30 percent or more of practice revenue. We knew we could help in this area – by enhancing our software features to make patient collections easier, and by providing education and training to help our customers create and implement a collection success plan."
