Healthcare payments network InstaMed is adding support for Apple Pay, enabling its clients (healthcare organizations) to offer a convenient and secure payment experience to consumers.

Consumers with the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus or Apple Watch will be able to make contactless payments using Apple Pay at the point of service. InstaMed allows all providers, payers and vendors launching consumer-facing mobile apps to offer Apple Pay as an online payment method. Within apps, Apple Pay is compatible with iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3.

“Approximately 20 percent of consumers have unpaid healthcare bills as a result of confusion in the payments process. This will only grow as more and more consumers continue to enroll in high deductible health plans,” said Chris Seib, CTO and Co-Founder of InstaMed. “To resolve consumer confusion and rising bad debt, the healthcare industry must deliver a simple, secure and private payment process with innovative technology, including Apple Pay.”

Consumers can now pay their co-pays and outstanding balances using Apple Pay in a variety of ways: at the check-out desk at a hospital or doctor’s office, or within a mobile app that a hospital or doctor’s office uses to communicate with their patients. Additionally, consumers enrolled in health insurance can pay premiums and even their patient responsibility using Apple Pay with their insurance company’s mobile app.
