Zelis Payments Network for Providers

Processing paper checks – and balancing electronic payments from multiple payers – takes way too much time. It’s time to rethink your approach. What if you could simplify the process – reducing days-to-pay, improving cash flow and increasing efficiency? That’s the promise of Zelis Provider Payments.

Dive Deeper

Communicate patient responsibility faster and more accurately.

Providers are doing too much to get paid. Between dealing with ever-changing industry rules, staffing shortages, and other challenges – you’re using every tool and resource you have to track down claim payments to keep your business running.

What if you could simplify your claim payment process and:

  1. Reduce your accounts receivable days by up to 16 days on average?
  2. Gain visibility into real-time payment data and reporting to avoid financial shocks?
  3. Refocus staff to activities that promote high quality care for your patients?
  4. Communicate patient responsibility faster and more accurately?

How It Works

Being a provider is hard enough. Getting paid shouldn’t have to be.

There are immediate benefits to moving from a vicious cycle of never-ending backlogs and costly errors to a singular platform. You’ll get paid and close your books faster, having more cash on hand while reducing AR by up to 16 days on average. Payment accuracy will also improve along with the overall payment experience, as you reduce staffing costs and shift resources from admin work to patient care. Most importantly, you’ll be able to execute on growth and strategic initiatives rather than digging your way out of the red.

Traditionally, handling payments manually required significant effort. The Zelis automated service has reduced this by 4x for our hospital business, and 6x for our physician business.
