HIPAA risks from unsecured payment data handling in spreadsheets
Staff burnout chasing overdue copays and patient balances
Inaccurate ICD-10 coding entries leading to claim denials and revenue loss, with denial rates averaging 15-20% in primary care practices
Fragmented systems causing double-entry between EHR platforms like Epic and payment gateways, increasing error rates in patient demographic syncing
Regulatory audits exposing vulnerabilities in non-automated billing flows, risking OCR penalties up to $1.5 million for uncovered PHI in payment records

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your Stripe automation ensure HIPAA compliance for my practice?
HIPAA compliance is non-negotiable in healthcare, and we embed it into every layer of our custom builds. We use end-to-end encryption for all payment data, adhering to HITRUST standards, and implement role-based access controls so only authorized staff see PHI. Our systems generate immutable audit trails for every transaction, making regulatory reviews straightforward. Unlike generic payment tools, we conduct a thorough security assessment of your workflow during discovery, ensuring integrations with your EHR maintain de-identification protocols. Clinics we've served report zero compliance issues in audits, saving thousands in potential fines. Setup includes third-party penetration testing, and we provide ongoing monitoring to adapt to evolving regulations like the HITECH Act.
What kind of time savings can a small medical practice expect?
For a typical 5-provider practice, manual Stripe billing reconciliation eats up 12-15 hours weekly—think entering copays, chasing claims, and fixing errors. Our automation handles this end-to-end, reclaiming those hours for patient-facing tasks. One client, a dermatology clinic, saw their billing staff's workload drop by 11 hours per week within the first month, boosting overall productivity by 35%. We quantify this during implementation with before-and-after benchmarks, focusing on metrics like time per invoice processed. The result? Faster month-end closes, reduced overtime, and staff who can actually enjoy weekends. ROI often hits 300% in year one through labor savings alone.
Can this integrate with my existing EHR system like Athenahealth?
Absolutely—integration is our specialty. We map your Athenahealth workflows directly to Stripe, creating bidirectional data flows for patient info, charges, and payments without manual intervention. For instance, a completed visit in Athena triggers automatic invoicing and copay prompts via Stripe, updating records in real-time. We've done this for dozens of practices, handling nuances like custom superbills or referral tracking. The process starts with API analysis to ensure compatibility, followed by secure, encrypted connections that comply with both systems' standards. No more double-entry errors that lead to claim denials. Deployment is phased to minimize disruption, with full testing on sample data sets.
How much does custom Stripe automation cost for a mid-sized clinic?
Costs vary based on your practice's complexity—think number of providers, patient volume, and existing systems—but for a mid-sized clinic (10-20 staff), expect $15,000-$25,000 for initial build, with no ongoing subscription fees since you own the system. This includes discovery, custom development, HIPAA certification, and three months of support. Compare that to the $5,000+ annual waste on multiple billing tools and the 20 hours weekly in lost productivity (at $30/hour, that's $30,000 yearly). Our clients typically see payback in 4-6 months through faster collections and error reductions. We provide a detailed ROI projection upfront, tailored to your revenue cycle, so you know exactly how it impacts your bottom line.
What if we need to handle international patients or multiple payment methods?
Our automations are flexible for diverse needs. For international patients, we integrate Stripe's global capabilities with currency conversion and compliance for cross-border PHI handling, ensuring GDPR alignment alongside HIPAA. We support cards, ACH, Apple Pay, and even installment plans, all routed through your custom workflow. A oncology practice we built for processes payments from 15 countries seamlessly, reducing admin time by 40% on foreign claims. During design, we incorporate your specific scenarios—like telemedicine fees or out-of-network billing—into the AI logic. Security features include geofencing alerts for unusual locations, and we test for edge cases to prevent disruptions during high-volume periods.
How long does implementation take, and is there downtime?
Implementation typically spans 4-8 weeks, depending on your setup's intricacies. Week one is discovery and planning; weeks two to five involve building and testing in a sandbox environment that mirrors your live systems. The final week is go-live with parallel running to catch any hiccups. Downtime? Minimal— we schedule migrations during off-peak hours, like evenings, and provide fallback manual processes if needed. A cardiology group went live over a weekend with zero patient impact, processing their first automated cycle Monday morning. Post-launch, we offer hands-on training and a 30-day optimization period to refine based on real usage, ensuring smooth adoption across your team.
