The partnership also presents thought leadership educational opportunities for CFOs, Controllers, and Accountants through a three-part webinar series. This free webinar series is open to NHA member hospitals and covers the following topics:

Part 1: Efficiency: Electronic Payments Save Time and Money and Allow AP to Focus on Mission Critical Tasks

April 29, 2021, 1:30 – 2:30 pm CT

Accounts payable staff are now busier than ever, and AP leaders are eager to improve operational efficiency and effectiveness. Paying vendors electronically frees staff from the drudgery of manual check processing, allowing them to focus more of their time on higher-value activities such as data analysis and supplier management.

Learning Objectives:

  • Discuss current AP pain points and headaches
  • Uncover ways to make AP more efficient
  • Understand how AP teams can reallocate time and resources

Part 2: The Past, Present and Future of Payments – The Evolution of Commercial Payments

June 24, 2021, 1:30 – 2:30 pm CT

Many organizations are adopting technology and automating to increase efficiency and save costs. Has your hospital or health system embraced electronic payments? Are you gaining all the benefits and avoiding the pitfalls of electronic payments?

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn about past B2B payment trends
  • Discover current technology and benefits of leveraging electronic payments
  • Learn about the future of business payments and the role of automation

Part 3: Fraud: Are Your Business Payments Safe?

August 26, 2021, 1:30 – 2:30 pm CT

Did you know your current check processing is posing risks and exposing your AP payments to payment fraud risks? With internal and external threats on the rise, accounting teams have no time to lose in mitigating the risk of payment fraud, safeguarding sensitive banking information, and ensuring the integrity of the accounting system. Electronic payment solutions, such as virtual cards and ACH transactions, provider greater protections than paper checks, mitigating the risk of payment fraud. 

Learning Objectives:

  • Discuss growing payment fraud risks to your organization
  • Highlight recent payment fraud incidents that have impacted businesses
  • Learn how to safeguard your business payments through e-payments.
