NFMMC is a  full-service, 171-bed regional medical center with extensive inpatient and outpatient services including The Heart Center of Niagara, Niagara Wellness Connection Center, Wound Center of Niagara, Niagara Metabolic & Bariatric Services, The OB/GYN Center and UBMD Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine. They also offer a comprehensive range of surgical services.

NFMMC was one of PDCflow’s first healthcare clients to sign on after the creation of a customer user interface in 2005. Due to their early implementation of PDCflow Payment Hub services in early 2007, the hospital has been able to expand and scale their payment services along with their facilities and community reach.

All methods of payment collection – employee entered payments, web and mobile initiated payments and recurring payments – have grown over the last decade.

Any internet connected device can become a virtual terminal with the PDCflow Payment Hub. This allows NFMMC to add employee users and departments (with the ability to separate out reporting by location and department as needed).

Since 2007, more consumers have moved to digital payments with debit and credit cards and patient payment responsibility has increased significantly. NFMMC was positioned to quickly and easily scale with this change, accepting more patient responsibility payments.

As a result, their digital payments have grown year-over-year at an average of 15.96%.

Thank you NFMMC!

Outsource Realm, headquartered in Arcade, New York, is owned and operated by Amy Hope and LaDeena Gilleland. Outsource Realm was formed in 2006 when it began reselling PDC services.  To date, Outsource Realm has set up 34 accounts–all in the hospital and healthcare industry.

Customer service is the driving force behind the collection and payment services Hope and Gilleland offer to their clients. When a client decides to move forward with utilizing PDCflow, the team provides in-person training sessions to the employees at each department or location.

Aside from Outsource Realm, the duo owns a collection agency that also uses the PDCflow Payment Hub. The use of the payment hub makes paying convenient and easy for both the consumer and their staff.

“Our agency strives to maintain and have “clients for life" by being more than just our client's collection agency. We consider ourselves a resource for them. Offering them the "payment tools" (PDCflow) our collectors use to successfully collect their accounts displays our desire to be an effective business partner for them," says Amy Hope.

"Sharing the tools we use for our success with them displays a genuine sense of the care and appreciation we have for them and the business they send our way.  Time is money and use of the payment hub enables our clients to reduce the number of accounts they send to us for collections, thus saving them money on the bad debt side of their business.”
