Apta Cash
Everywhere else gives a cash discount. Why not healthcare?
Apta Cash works with any health plan or as a standalone program, helping members pay little to nothing out of pocket for high-cost procedures by negotiating direct cash prices through our proprietary payment platform. Powered by a team of experts.
​
Navigating cash pay and the healthcare system shouldn’t be a DIY project. It’s important to have an expert on your side who knows which providers to trust, how much things should cost, and how to negotiate claims.

How it Works
The Old Way
-
Member schedules shoulder surgery
-
Hospital bills $24,000
-
Insurance "discounts" the price to $16,000
-
Member owes $4,500 out of pocket
-
Employer absorbs a $11,500 claim
-
There’s still a possibility of additional bills after the procedure
-
Provider waits 90+ for the claim to be resolved and to get paid
The Apta Cash Way

-
Our team pays the provider through our proprietary cash payment system on the day of the procedure
-
Member pays $0 out of pocket and saves $4,500
-
Provider avoids administrative burden of tracking payment
