How it works
- 01
Place patient balances
After insurance adjudication, self-pay balances sync with guarantor data, statement history, and FAP status.
- 02
AI reaches patients
Statements, reminders, plan offers, and portal links across the channels patients prefer, inside every medical debt rule.
- 03
Resolve and post
Payments, plans, and assistance outcomes post back to your billing system. Accounts that qualify for charity exit cleanly.
Medical debt is different, and the law now says so
Patients do not choose to incur medical debt, often do not understand the balance, and frequently cannot pay it in full. Regulators have responded: the credit bureaus removed paid medical collections and stopped reporting medical debts under $500 or less than a year old, several states have passed medical debt collection laws with notice and plan requirements, nonprofit hospitals must follow 501(r) financial assistance and extraordinary collection action rules, and the CFPB has moved to limit medical debt on credit reports entirely. Traditional agencies struggle to keep up and expose providers to reputational and legal risk.
HL Hunt was built with these rules in the engine. Every medical account is screened for exclusions before any reporting. Financial assistance eligibility is surfaced early, with application links delivered in the same message as the balance. Notices and waiting periods required by state law and 501(r) are generated and tracked. Messaging is empathetic, clear, and limited to the minimum necessary information under HIPAA.
The results are better for everyone. Patients get clear information and workable plans instead of confusing statements and pressure. Providers collect more of what is actually collectable, write off what should be charity with documentation, and avoid the complaints and lawsuits that follow aggressive medical collections.

Healthcare FAQ
Is HL Hunt HIPAA compliant?
HL Hunt signs a Business Associate Agreement, applies minimum-necessary principles to every communication, and keeps PHI in the secure portal rather than in texts or emails. Security controls are SOC 2 Type II audited.
How does HL Hunt support 501(r) for nonprofit hospitals?
Financial assistance policy summaries and application links are included in outreach, the 120-day notification period and 30-day notice before extraordinary collection actions are tracked, and presumptive eligibility signals route accounts to charity review.
Do you report medical debt to credit bureaus?
Only if you enable it, and then only accounts that are eligible under bureau policy, state law, and federal rules. Most healthcare clients choose not to report at all.
Can patients see itemized statements?
Yes. The debtor portal provides itemized statements, insurance adjustments, and payment history with secure verification, without putting clinical details in messages.
