And now, without further adieu, onto InstaMed’s 2018 Year in Review.

Expanded Philadelphia Headquarters
This past year InstaMed added a third floor to their Philadelphia Headquarters at 18th and JFK Boulevard. The Philadelphia Business Journal featured news of the expanding space, including the addition of a new 3,200 square-foot “Collaboration Center,” built to host events, engage with the local business community and connect with providers, payers and consumers that make up our healthcare payments network.

Transformed the Consumer Experience With the InstaMed Engage Solution
The InstaMed Engage solution streamlines the end-to-end consumer healthcare payments experience. Engage enables providers and payers to interact with patients pre-service through their mobile device to accelerate online payment and eStatement adoption upfront.

Sold Out the InstaMed User Conference 2018
Healthcare professionals from across the country gathered in Philadelphia to learn, connect and collaborate during InstaMed’s annual three-day conference. The conference will be returning to Philadelphia this year, but with a new name and an even bigger agenda. The InstaMed Healthcare Payments Summit 2019 is March 25 – 27 in Philadelphia, PA. Register today and join them for the can’t-miss healthcare payments event of the year!

Joined the Epic App Orchard
The InstaMed External Payment Page Integration is available in the Epic App Orchard, and Boston Medical Center (BMC) was the first customer to leverage the integration. This integration enables healthcare organizations using Epic to create a seamless and secure online consumer payment experience while dramatically reducing Payment Card Industry (PCI) scope and costs.

Named to Philadelphia Business Journal’s Soaring 76 List
Each year, the Philadelphia Business Journal names the fastest-growing companies in Greater Philadelphia to their “Soaring76” list. InstaMed was excited and honored to be named to this list in 2018 and looks forward to continuing their growth in 2019.
