Rapid Application for Medical Programs (RAMP)
Web-based screening & application tool
Health care reform sets new requirements for facilitating coverage for uninsured patients. Ensure your patients receive the care and financial assistance they need while reducing your costs and administrative burdens with RAMP powered by R&B Solutions.
What is PFSI?
PFSI uses R&B Solutions’ Rapid Application for Medical Programs (RAMP), a web-based software, to automate the screening and application process for Medicaid and other financial assistance programs, including your hospital’s Charity Care.
How does it work?
During the interview process, the PFSI system identifies the best potential program for your uninsured patient based on household and financial considerations. It then provides the appropriate application form for the program, auto-populating certain fields and allowing staff to include attachments like medical releases and charity documents. The system even facilitates income estimation, address verifications and the gathering of other financial information so your staff can save time, achieve greater accuracy—and faster reimbursements.
