Who We Serve

We Help Hospitals Empower Their Policies & Patients

Breez Works In Partnership With Hospitals Focused On Providing Financial Relief For Patients And Families Who Need It The Most.

We understand the importance of reducing and eliminating financial disparities that prohibit communities from gaining access to critical care, and provide financial assistance solutions that make it easier and more effective for non-profit hospitals to do so.

The inability to pay for care and lack of access to financial assistance programs causes negative effects for both the patient and hospital. Current financial assistance processes can be cumbersome and inefficient, costing both hospitals and patients time and money. At Breez, we work with non-profit hospitals to assess their current financial assistance program to ensure they avoid some of the most common pitfalls, such as:

  • Applications are difficult to find
  • Qualification language and process is unclear
  • Application process is complex and manual
  • Cost and administrative burden weighs on hospital staff
  • Overall patient experience needs improvement

What Our Clients Are Saying

“Serving our community has always been our number one priority. Which is why we knew it was imperative that we do everything we could to make our financial assistance program as easy as possible to access and navigate for our patients. Partnering with Breez Health, we have implemented a financial assistance system that not only works for us, but helps our patients understand charity care available to them. We are incredibly proud of how easy we’ve made it for patients to utilize and are excited to see how this partnership will help our communities receive the care they need at a cost they can afford.”

“With Breez, our patients can now anonymously screen themselves for eligibility and apply from their smart device while sitting in our waiting room. The application and documents transmit electronically to our staff who can review and process applications with ease.”

“The implementation of the Financial Assistance Self-Screening tool has been a monumental step forward for both our patients and our operational efficiency. Navigating the financial aspects of healthcare can often be stressful. However, since introducing the self-screening tool and application process our patients can now independently assess their financial assistance options. In terms of efficiency, the impact is remarkable. The tool’s automated process allows for accurate and timely assistance decisions to allow us to serve more patients effectively within the same time frame.”

"It’s really nice that all the online applications come in typed out instead of having to try to read someone’s handwriting. Trying to guess what they wrote can be a real challenge sometimes."

"I trained our home health nurses on our Breez Online Financial Assistance Platform, and they absolutely love it! It’s so easy for them during patient visits to tell the patient about our financial assistance program, and help them complete their application online. They no longer have to carry application forms with them, which can be a bit of a HIPAA risk. Everything just is a lot smoother!"

Breez is an exceptional “easy button” to transform your financial assistance process from paper fax and mail, to ‘online anywhere’ in just a couple months. This has tremendously improved access, expedited turnaround times, and saved administrative costs at our health system. With Breez, patients and guarantors can complete their application online from a cell phone or tablet; not just from a desktop computer. From the robust Breez reporting package, we know that 42% of our applications are coming from phones or tablets. I certainly don’t write a paper check, find a stamp and mail my bills – I pay them online. It’s cheaper and faster for everyone involved. Why shouldn’t we offer the same level of service to the people that are saying, “Hey, I need some help with my bill.”

New Opportunities For Growth

We are experts and well versed in regulatory requirements when it comes to helping hospitals maintain their tax-exempt status. We work to help organizations avoid compliance issues and the risk of losing tax-exempt status, and provide a path to greater efficiency and patient satisfaction. Breez empowers its clients to lead the industry in Charity Care as a percentage of net patient revenue, and promote health equity and positive patient outcomes.

Managing the patient application process can cost time and money. From review, to documentation verification, eligibility calculation, review and ongoing management, Breez simplifies and streamlines the entire process for both patients and hospitals.

As a result, we are also able to help our clients uncover new revenue opportunities by increasing and accelerating Federal Uncompensated Care Reimbursement (UCC), and reducing the cost of program administration.
