Credit Card Processing

Payment Process

Wherever you access the payment system, you use the same method: On the Collect Copay screen, enter the amount due, payment method, reference number, and any comments you might want to store. When you swipe the credit card through the card reader, the card holder’s name, card number, and expiration date will automatically populate the appropriate fields. If you are accepting a payment by phone, you would simply key in this information. The system automatically applies the specified payment amount to the patient’s account.

If the transaction is approved, the patient receives a receipt by email. You can also print out a paper version immediately or suggest it be printed at home through the Patient Portal. Your clinic can also keep records of patient payments by running reports based on credit card transactions.

Integrated Credit Card Processing Saves Money

• Record keeping and reporting are easier because transactions are posted to your bank account before any fees are charged. Service fees are deducted in one lump sum at the end of the month
• Faster payment posting (two days versus the three-day industry standard)
• No charges for declined transactions because TransFirst waives declined authorization and batch header fees

As an added benefit, TransFirst offers potential customers a complimentary Efficiency Analysis that compares your current costs for processing credit cards with what they would charge. This analysis comes with a Meet or Beat promise – they will not charge you more than you are paying now. TransFirst’s commitment to meet or beat pricing means that your payment processing will be more efficient and cost effective.
