“During a period of high inflation and volatile credit markets, a health system’s ability to offer flexible and inclusive payment options for consumers will be vital to patient retention and growth,” AccessOne CEO Mark Spinner said in the release. “Simplifying patient financial communications and offering multiple options for payment—including long-term payment for those with limited access to traditional credit—are key to supporting a healthcare provider’s financial stability.”
