SUNRISE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 23, 2018--Patients at facilities run by South Florida’s Memorial Healthcare System (MHS), one of the nation’s largest public healthcare systems, can now easily and quickly finance their out-of-pocket medical fees online, thanks to a new program powered by ezCarePoint, a next generation medical financing technology platform created by ezVerify, a Sunrise, Fla. based company and LendingPoint, a Kennesaw, Ga. based company.

After creating a profile and logging into the MHS website experience, patients for the first time will have at their fingertips the ability to understand the financial obligations associated with their medical care through a detailed statement and then apply for a loan to cover the portion of the cost that is their responsibility. Patients will be notified of approvals in a matter of seconds. Funds from the loan automatically pay the entire bill upfront, and the patient repays on the schedule supplied in the offer.

“Allowing the patient to understand the financial obligations for their medical procedures in a stress-free, private environment is key -- especially during a time when people should be focused on their health,” said Matthew Muhart, Executive Vice President of MHS. “ezCarePoint, is a simple, transparent solution that helps make medical care more affordable to everyone. Transparency in healthcare costs is long overdue.”
