What You Should Know:

– Mastercard, a global leader in payments, is pioneering a revolutionary solution using its cutting-edge virtual card technology.

– This first-of-its-kind initiative aims to streamline B2B claim settlements, replacing the clunky old system with a sleek, digital one. Partnering with leading financial institutions and health tech platforms like Remedinet in India, Mastercard is paving the way for a faster, more efficient future.

The Problem

The pain of slow and inefficient healthcare claim settlements is a familiar ache for both patients and providers. Cumbersome paper trails, manual processing, and archaic systems leave everyone frustrated, with hospitals facing cash flow woes and insurance companies drowning in administrative burdens. But a new wave of innovation is washing over the healthcare landscape, promising smoother sailing for all involved.

Virtual Cards Embedded within Health Tech Platform

Mastercard’s virtual card technology seamlessly integrates with platforms like Remedinet, creating a unified ecosystem for claim processing. The moment a claim is approved, a virtual card is generated and issued to the healthcare provider, eliminating months of waiting and boosting working capital. Detailed transaction data flows alongside claim settlements, providing insurance companies with greater clarity and simplifying reconciliation processes.

“We’re on a mission to integrate our technology into platform providers to drive seamless B2B payment experiences at greater scale,” says Chad Wallace, Global Head of Commercial Solutions at Mastercard. “As we assessed industries where we can contribute with impact, healthcare emerged as a critical industry to unlock payment efficiencies.”
