BETHLEHEM, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–SRHO – The National Association (“SRHO”) announced a strategic partnership to bring the AblePay model to their representative medical providers across the United States and ultimately benefiting healthcare consumers in the communities the providers serve.

“We are excited to partner with SRHO”

SRHO is a consortium of Strategic Regional Healthcare Organizations established in 2017 with the goal of creating a national consortium to produce value among individual SRHOs that were previously not connected by providing one source of information and support to address their unique challenges.

AblePay Health’s current provider network includes 42 hospital campuses and over 1,100 specialty provider offices, covering 20 counties in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Ohio.

Mark Tribbett, Chief Executive Officer at SRHO, said, “Our new partnership with AblePay Health creates an exciting and innovative opportunity for our health system members. We were intrigued by AblePay’s unique business model that allows medical providers to decrease costs and dramatically increase revenues while assisting healthcare consumers in diffusing rising out-of-pocket medical expenses. The program will not only financially benefit providers but will significantly change the patient experience. We’re thrilled to welcome AblePay Health to our consortium and are excited to see the impact that it makes for our Members, Hospitals, and their Patients.”

“We are excited to partner with SRHO,” said John Fistner, Founder and CEO. “Our cash flow model accelerates revenue and cuts costs associated with collecting out-of-pocket payments for medical providers, while completely changing the patient experience. SRHO’s relationship with their Members and Health Systems will allow us to scale quickly to more providers. This scale will result in faster adoption of our no-cost benefit for patients, employees, employers and individuals providing savings, payment flexibility, billing advocacy, and convenience for health-related expenses in the communities we serve.”
