Cedar Celebrates PFX Award Winners Reshaping the Patient Financial Experience

The Patient Financial Experience (PFX) Awards celebrate the unsung heroes who are committed to solving a crucial problem in healthcare: the fragmented payment experience

NEW YORK, Sept. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Cedar, the leading financial experience platform, today announced the winners of its inaugural PFX Awards. As patients find it increasingly stressful to pay, navigate and understand their healthcare bills, the PFX Awards recognize those who go the extra mile to strengthen the digital healthcare ecosystem and improve the well-being of their patients.

“We are proud to honor the PFX Award winners and their impact on the patient financial experience.” – Seth Cohen, Cedar

“Every team member within a healthcare organization plays a critical role in the patient journey and healing process,” said Seth Cohen, President of Cedar. “But, those working behind the scenes often do not garner the recognition they deserve. The PFX Awards celebrate both individuals and teams across payer and provider organizations—from the call center, to the front desk, to the revenue cycle. We are proud to honor their efforts and dedication to enhance the patient financial experience.”

Winners of the PFX Awards were honored across four categories, highlighting their unique approaches to making healthcare more accessible and affordable.

The Builders: Creators who are designing or building consumer-focused technology that empowers patients to resolve their bills.
Amy Levine, Hartford HealthCare
Jennifer Tryfon, Keck Medicine of USC

The Connectors: Collaborators bringing teams, platforms and initiatives together, leading to better financial outcomes for providers and patients.

The Visionaries: Thought leaders who are spearheading innovation that strengthens the patient financial experience.
