October 15, 2014 healtheo360, an online Caring Network of patients seeking support and information about living with chronic health conditions is proud to announce its partnership with CoPatient. CoPatient is an easy-to-use service that protects people against medical billing errors and overcharges.

“healtheo360’s partnership with CoPatient is of the utmost importance for our community members,” says David S. Duplay, Founder and CEO of healtheo360. “So many in our community are feeling overwhelmed with medical bills that are difficult to understand and often pouring in alongside explanations of benefits that look and feel like bills. Our members can now sleep a little better knowing they have someone advocating for them and bringing their medical costs down.”

An all too familiar scenario has emerged with excessive and erroneous medical costs being passed onto consumers. CoPatient helps consumers identify and resolve medical billing errors and overcharges through technology enabled services and a dedicated network of advocates. On average CoPatient is able to save customers $3,000 or more on medical bills.

Rebecca Palm, co-founder of CoPatient, said “We’re very pleased to bring our service to members of healtheo360 so they can focus on their health, not their bills. We’ll analyze their bills for free, identify hard-to-find errors and negotiate with hospitals and providers on their behalf to save them time, money and hassle. Just like healtheo360, we are with them every step of the way.”
