Epic added Patientco, a patient payment technology company, to its App Orchard online marketplace.
The company offers two payment platforms that support automated, real-time payment posting.
The two platforms are: Patientco Patient Payments, which enables self-service payments via Epic's MyChart patient portal, and Patientco Encrypted Device Integration, which allows staff to collect payments without leaving the Epic EHR system.
Established in 2017, Epic's App Orchard allows users to download and use apps that can run on Epic's software but are designed by third-party developers.
