/24-7PressRelease/ -- Members of the American Academy of Urgent Care Medicine (AAUCM) may now take advantage of special offers on medical payment products from First National Merchant Solutions. AAUCM has named First National Merchant Solutions a preferred provider, making the processor's industry-leading medical payment solutions, including First Paid, available to all AAUCM members.
First Paid is a specialized suite of products designed specifically for healthcare providers. The product suite helps speed up the payment process, eliminate confusion and paper, and cut costs. At the heart of First Paid is a real-time calculator that can determine what a patient owes for healthcare services at the time of treatment. The software confirms patients' coverage and benefits, determines out-of-pocket status, calculates charges based on contracted rates with insurance providers, and produces an easy-to-read estimate of insurance reimbursement and the patient's financial responsibility for the visit. Patients can then pay for services via credit card, debit card or check, or set up a recurring payment. The system integrates with First National Merchant Solutions' processing platform to handle payment acquiring, routing and settlement.
First National Merchant Solutions is a long-time provider of processing services to healthcare providers. Today, more than 7,000 practices rely on First National Merchant Solutions to affordably and effectively accept card-based patient payments.
First National Merchant Solutions provides a variety of payment processing solutions to meet the unique needs of all businesses accepting card-based payments. Solutions include credit and debit card processing, prepaid card processing and program management, secure Internet commerce processing, electronic benefit transfer processing and check guarantee, authorization and collection.
