Background
Thirty-Five Years in Medical Finance
Mary Leach has been Progressive Medical Center's senior financial advisor for more than 20 years. She came to PMC with 15 years of prior experience at a large medical insurance company in Mississippi, where she built a working knowledge of how medical insurance actually functions: benefits, exclusions, reimbursement, and the specific questions that trip patients up.
Mary uses that medical-insurance background alongside her financial experience to help PMC patients make informed decisions about the cost of their care. Insurance can be confusing, even for patients who have been dealing with it for years. Mary's job is to explain it calmly and clearly, in the context of each patient's specific situation.
Mary is also a patient of PMC's approach. She has made lifestyle changes based on the diagnostic testing PMC uses, and those changes have improved her own health. That personal experience shapes how she works with patients: she understands what it is like to receive PMC's kind of care and to follow through on a treatment plan.
What Mary Does
Cash-Pay Model Guidance
Explains how PMC's cash-pay structure works, what patients are responsible for up front, and how to submit claims to insurance carriers for reimbursement.
Insurance Navigation and Reimbursement
Brings 15 years of prior medical-insurance experience to the specific question every PMC patient asks: what will my insurance cover? Walks patients through benefits, eligible services, and reimbursement procedures.
Cherry Financing and CareCredit
Helps patients understand payment options, including Cherry Financing and CareCredit, for those who need to spread the cost of care over time.
Out-of-Town Patient Financial Planning
Coordinates the financial side of care for patients traveling to Atlanta for PMC's treatments. Works with the out-of-town patient concierge process so travel, treatment, and payment line up without surprises.
