Checkup: What is Check Up

CheckUP™ – A Healthcare Price Transparency Platform

CheckUP™ is a proven, affordable, fast, customizable price transparency platform that easily integrates with your existing website.

The platform allows users to search by hospital code, procedure name, category, or even select a procedure from a drop-down list. It includes descriptions of the charges, each procedure, and costs.

Hospitals and health networks are already using CheckUP™, it is not only a great tool to show patients the cost of care prior to their procedure, but it is also very affordable for your organization.

The best part about CheckUP™ is that it goes beyond the government requirements and is an asset to your patient base and the public.

A Platform that meets compliance!

A consumer-friendly display that includes the following standard charges for at least 300 ‘shoppable’ services (or as many as the hospital provides if less than 300) that are grouped with charges for ancillary services that are customarily provided by the hospital: discounted cash prices, payer-specific negotiated charges, and de-identified minimum and maximum negotiated charges.

Speed to Market

At KSA&D, we work with clients in various healthcare settings, from healthcare systems to rehabilitation networks. Our platform is built with efficiencies to help organizations launch price transparency in four to six months, sometimes even less.

Improved Usability

The platform includes descriptions of the charges, each procedure, and the ability to search by hospital code, procedure name, category, or even select a procedure from a drop-down list. We bring the best user experience to the patients of the network and exceed the CMS requirements to give a better patient experience.
