Datatel, a leader in secure payment technology, Announces Patient Payment Notification Solutions to Support Canadian Hospitals Amid Canada Post Strike. As the ongoing Canada Post strike disrupts traditional mail services, Datatel is stepping up to assist hospitals across Canada with innovative payment communication solutions to ensure uninterrupted communication with patients regarding invoices and payment notices.

With many healthcare providers relying on mail for billing and payment reminders, delays have created operational challenges. Datatel’s automated solutions offer a timely, digital alternative to ensure patients receive their notifications promptly.

“Our goal is to help hospitals maintain efficient operations during this challenging time,” said Barnard Crespi, Co-CEO of Datatel. “By bypassing traditional mail, we’re enabling hospitals to prevent delays, improve cash flow, and provide patients with a convenient and reliable way to stay informed about their balances.”

The company’s technology seamlessly exchanges information with leading Healthcare Information Systems used in Canada, including MEDITECH, EPIC, and CERNER, to easily consume and process the data needed for automated payment notifications and reminders. This ensures hospitals can quickly transition to a more efficient and secure communication method without disrupting existing workflows.

Key Benefits of the Solution Include: 

• Timely Delivery: Automated payment notifications and reminders sent directly to patients via automated Voice and Text Messaging.

• Operational Efficiency: Reduced reliance on traditional mail services and minimized administrative burden.

• Enhanced Patient Satisfaction: A convenient, consistent way for patients to stay updated on their balances.

• Seamless Data Exchange: Compatibility with healthcare systems like MEDITECH, EPIC, and Cerner ensures smooth data processing.

By leveraging Datatel’s solutions, hospitals can focus on providing exceptional care without worrying about payment communication disruptions during the Canada Post Strike and beyond.
