Getting paid starts with removing the barriers to payment.
Multiple children, different visits, different balances — but often the same person paying the bill. Bringing it all together gives parents a clearer picture of what the family owes and practices less to untangle.
Giving parents a familiar ways to pay — in the moment or later from their phone — eliminates unnecessary friction. The easier it is to pay, the more opportunities you have to get paid.
Even with an easy payment experience, patient A/R doesn’t manage itself. Keeping balances easy to find, organize, follow up on, and escalate gives staff a clearer path from outstanding balance to payment.
Make patient payments a natural part of your workflow.
Sibling balances roll up under the appropriate guarantor, giving families one clear statement of what they owe instead of separate bills to sort through and multiple payments to make.
Balances are visible during scheduling and in the chart, while Tap to Pay makes it simple to collect at check-in using the payment methods parents already use every day.
Parents can take care of a balance through the portal, mobile app, or a payment link sent by message — no phone call or visit to the office required. Or save a credit card on file, and shorten the path to payment even more.
Collection statuses, follow-up tasks, patient alerts, bulk actions, letter generation, and collection agency workflows give your team a clear way to manage the balances that remain.
A simpler path from balance to payment.

Three kids on one statement, and no confused phone calls.
One simplified financial picture for the whole family.
What to know about patient payments in pediatrics.
Office Practicum connects patient balances and payments directly to the family’s account within the EHR and practice management workflow. Practices can collect copays at check-in, send statements and payment reminders, offer families multiple ways to pay, and track outstanding balances and payments without managing a separate patient payment process.
Office Practicum brings balances for multiple children in the same family together on one family statement. Instead of receiving separate statements for each child, the guarantor can see what is owed across the family in one place, making balances easier to understand and manage.
Families can pay through the Office Practicum patient portal or mobile app, use a payment link sent by the practice, or make a payment directly to the practice. Giving families multiple ways to pay lets them choose the option that works best for them and gives practices more opportunities to receive payment.
Yes. Office Practicum allows practices to see and collect copays as part of the check-in workflow, including before the patient arrives through the remote patient check-in process. Addressing patient responsibility at the time of service fits naturally into the visit workflow rather than adding it to the balance that needs to be collected later.
Office Practicum gives practices visibility into outstanding patient balances and how long they have been unpaid. Teams can use that information to identify aging patient A/R, prioritize follow-up, and address overdue balances before they continue to age.
Patient payments are connected to the family account in Office Practicum, where balances, payments, credits, and responsibility across siblings can be managed together. This gives the practice a clearer view of the family’s financial activity while keeping each child’s charges and balances properly accounted for.
Making it easier for families to pay can help practices collect patient balances sooner by reducing common barriers to payment. Offering clear family statements, convenient payment options, payment links, and opportunities to pay at check-in gives families more chances to take care of what they owe and helps practices reduce outstanding patient A/R.
