The Vālenz Payment Solution: Electronic Solutions for Timely and Efficient Claim Payments
PHOENIX, Ariz. (May 12, 2020) – In response to surging demand for electronic claim payments, leaders at Vālenz™ today announced the rollout of the Valenz payment solution. This development further expands the Valenz ecosystem to include fully automated solutions for electronic provider payments.
With the Valenz payment solution, payers and third-party administrators can automate and streamline payment processes for health, dental and workers’ compensation claims – eliminating the delays of manual payment processes and ensuring payments arrive on time. While the need for electronic payment solutions was already on the rise, the widespread shift to working from home has led to rapid acceleration of the Valenz payment solution, now being released ahead of its original late 2020 schedule.
“COVID-19 has presented many unforeseen operational challenges, especially for organizations with manual processes that raise barriers to conducting business as usual right now,” said Jordan Hersh, Vice President, Enterprise Solutions at Valenz, adding that Valenz is dedicated to meeting client needs even as those needs change day by day during the pandemic response. “The current situation called for us to provide electronic payment solutions as soon as possible for our clients, and we were very happy to make that happen.”
The Valenz payment solution enables clients to send provider payments on time and according to their providers’ own preferences, including virtual card payments. Timely, accurate payments are an important part of maintaining healthy relationships with hospitals and providers, and electronic claim payments eliminate manual steps to streamline operations and reduce expenses. With the Valenz payment solution, all payments are processed on a single system of record, regardless of payment type. And, because security is paramount, the platform is HIPAA and NACHA compliant, and it meets all federal and state requirements for electronic payments.
“Simplified payment processes, operational efficiency and clearer communications benefit all health plan partners, especially while working through significant changes in the work environment,” said Rob Gelb, Valenz Chief Executive Offer. “The Valenz payment solution is an important part of our promise to support our clients in achieving smarter, better, faster healthcare.”
