In this guest blog on APTQI, Tom Furr, CEO of PatientPay, discusses how digital payment solutions can drive significant improvements for physical therapy groups. Integrated Rehabilitation Group (IRG) experienced a 60% payment rate and doubled their daily collections after implementing PatientPay's mobile pay platform. This digital transformation allowed IRG to expand services and reduce administrative burdens, enhancing overall efficiency.

Key Highlights

  • 60% Payment Rate: Achieved through text-to-pay notifications.
  • Doubled Collections: Sustained improvement in daily collections.
  • Expansion: Enabled new services and reduced administrative tasks.
“Within minutes of sending our first texts, IRG received a payment. It was a sign of things to come.”

— Shannon O’Kelly, CEO, IRG
