It might be challenging to get test results or pay a doctor’s bill because there are so many insurance payer and healthcare provider portals available. It demands harmony.
That’s exactly what’s happening as consumers warm up to the notion of integrated healthcare platforms, which also provides further layers of data protection while alleviating portal pain points.
Uniform platforms are typical in several facets of human lives. With Amazon.com, we can satisfy all of our shipping, purchasing, and movie needs. The healthcare sector is today much more fragmented, according to Tali Goldstein, head of partnerships at FinTech Lynx.
She listed the numerous websites and portals that consumers now use to book appointments, pay bills, etc., but claimed that there isn’t a single web location where people can go to find out what their insurance covers, what services are available to them through their plan, through their employer, or anything else. Unified platforms are now a goal, but not always a reality, in the healthcare industry, as is the case in other industries.
Lynx is a pioneer in this space, with its FinTech-as-a-Service platform for healthcare. The desire for streamlined, simpler digital healthcare experiences is growing.
