Patient payments, made simple – pre or post procedure
Simple, secure payments collected before or after the procedure. Reduce the risk of patient unpaid debt, communicate clearly with patients, and take the admin and collection stress off you and your practice team.
Get the gap paid, without the awkward calls
Clear & consistent communication builds trust
Messages include the practice, referring doctor, specialist and payment details, so patients always know why they’re being asked to pay. You and clinic always know the status of each payment – pre or post procedure.
Secure and trusted digital payment options
Medbill uses trusted, secure, encrypted payment processing to protect patient information – paid by BPAY, credit card or direct depoist.
Updates & Receipts sent automatically
Patients receive a receipt automatically as soon as they pay — no manual follow-up needed from your team.
Weekend-friendly & followed up
Automated reminders are scheduled to avoid weekends, with phone follow-up from our team if a payment remains unpaid.

GapCollect works the same way whether you’re a solo specialist or a large multi-site practice. GapCollect works with all different pricing models, and whether you want to collect the patient gaps pre-procudure or post procedure. You choose based on the way you work.
