Mailbox
Paper, without the work
Mailbox is Inbox Health’s lockbox service designed for billing teams that uses technology to automate the work of opening, sorting, depositing, and posting mailed patient payments for you.
Process paper payments with the ease, speed, and convenience of digital correspondence.
Get paid faster
Mail is scanned and posted to your PM system as it is received. Without having to manually review and deposit your mail, you get paid the day a check arrives.
Automate patient payment posting
Patients’ checks are received, scanned, and automatically posted to your PM systems.
Consolidate and enhance reporting
Keep all patient billing activity in one place with Mailbox. See your digital and mailed patient payment data in a single snapshot – no logging into a separate third-party software or inputting payments manually.
How it Works
Automate 95% of paper patient payments
Mailbox automatically reviews incoming mail, and 95% of patient payments post automatically, deposit to your bank account, and apply to your practice management system(s).
Patient checks are received, scanned, posted to your various practice management systems and deposited automatically
Payments are automatically posted and applied to your practice management system(s). Miscellaneous mail is scanned and flagged as a notification for your review. You can customize patient payment notifications to align with your team’s existing workflow for notes or assign an employee to handle all mailed correspondence.
By processing and posting your mailed payments accurately and quickly, your billing team will also benefit from:
- Fewer questions and phone calls from patients with Mailbox’s ability to send receipts automatically
- Fewer statements sent due to increased accuracy result in cost savings on paper and postage
- Reduced manual labor, improving the efficiency of your business
