Curae® Launches Its Most Advanced Patient Financing Solution

Published

on

Improving care access and affordability while reducing bad debt by 20% plus

ATLANTA, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Curae® has announced the market introduction of its new and most advanced Patient Financing solution. The best non-recourse revolving line of credit suite to help mitigate HDHP patients’ challenges in paying their out-of-pocket responsibilities. The newest version of the solution, known as CURAEPay, will reduce the risk of uncompensated care and lost revenue while improving the affordability of patient responsibility payments. It is part of Curae’s Patient Financial Access Platform designed to reduce the risk of uncompensated care and improve the overall patient financial experience.

“Providers needed a true patient financing solution to help patients afford and access their care, to get paid before service or at service, and to be in a supportive position in the patient financial experience,” said Chris Stenglein, Curae’s CEO and founder.

Curae’s patient financing solution integrates with a health system’s revenue cycle ecosystem and electronic health record. Patients engage with the platform through their patient portal or provider website, using their mobile device or laptop at the time of scheduling and through patient statements for existing balances. Patients requiring financing are provided a revolving line of credit at 0% interest to pay for needed care. Patient applicant approval rate runs at 90% routinely, including sub-prime applicants. Providers gain cash earlier and much improved patient revenue collections as Curae pays the balance within 48 hours. Today’s consumer-patient is struggling with HDHP responsibilities on employer-sponsored plans and Bronze ACA plans. They need longer terms to pay for their responsibilities. In addition, many providers require deposits for imaging and other outpatient services before service, and they offer shorter terms of 6 and 12 months.

Curae has also announced that the revolving line of credit is never reported to credit agencies, so a patient’s credit rating is not affected.

Through Curae’s platform, health systems are gaining a reduction in patient bad debt of more than 20% with non-recourse balance liquidation; patient net promoter scores are increasing by up to 30 points; providers are realizing a higher level of engagement in care, especially for higher risk patients (diagnostics, monitoring, specialist referrals), resulting in better outcomes.

Curae’s CEO and founder, Chris Stenglein, said, “We listened to our customers’ concerns about the exploding patient bad debt from high-deductible plans, in both self-pay-after-insurance and pure self-pay.” Stenglein continued, “Providers needed a true patient financing solution to help patients afford and access their care, to get paid before service or at service, and to be in a supportive position in the patient financial experience. It’s available now”. Curae’s clients appreciate that Curae is backed by dependable long-term institutional capital. For example, just one of Curae’s clients has nearly half a billion dollars in credit headroom that Curae stands behind.

RSVPify Launches MCP and In-App AI Assistant to Ease Event Planning Friction and Drive Simplicity

Published

By

New innovations introduce the RSVPify MCP for advanced AI tool integration and data connectivity, alongside the RSVPify Cue assistant, bringing effortless automation to event organizers.

CHICAGO, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — RSVPify, the event technology provider known for its user-driven innovation, today announced the launch of two flagship artificial intelligence tools designed to simplify as many steps of the event management process as possible. Built to meet users where they are already working, these new capabilities remove administrative hurdles so teams can focus on what really matters: creating exceptional experiences.

RSVPify’s approach embeds AI directly into the event management experience, helping organizers move from planning and configuration to execution with greater speed and control. The launch introduces two distinct innovations tailored to modern event workflows: the RSVPify MCP, and RSVPify Cue, a powerful new in-app AI assistant.

Empowering Enterprise Users with RSVPify Cue

Debuting today is RSVPify Cue, a native in-app AI assistant built to simplify and expedite workflows. Rather than adding unnecessary complexity, Cue allows organizers to simply instruct the platform to handle event setup, answer guest list queries, and surface event success metrics. It empowers teams to build and manage events through natural instruction, keeping the focus entirely on the guest experience instead of bogged down in repetitive tasks.

Designed to keep pace with the speed at which event organizers need to work and reduce the repetitive tasks they face daily, Cue allows users to:

Build Registration Forms and Websites in Minutes: Provide the event info and layout preferences to draft event registration flows in minutes and splash pages in seconds. Cue has the context from your brand and previous events to guide creation.Query Comprehensive Event Data: Analyze and share anything collected during the registration process, from ticket sales, attendance, and guest responses to check-in data, donations, and custom preferences.Simplify Post-Event Analysis: Easily summarize revenue, attendance numbers, and guest data to inform event ROI calculations and streamline reporting.

“The next evolution of event software will be spoken, not clicked,” said Ari Driessen, founder and executive chairman at RSVPify. “RSVPify’s AI assistant takes its cue from event planners and handles the busy work, so they can spend their time on the moments only humans can create.”

Bridging Workflow Gaps with the RSVPify MCP

The RSVPify MCP connector brings powerful, real-time data connectivity directly to event workflows by allowing enterprise users to integrate RSVPify with their AI tool of choice. Once connected, organizers can simply make queries or requests right within their external AI tool to query event data, make edits, and streamline planning and post-event analysis.

“Event technology should remove barriers, not create them,” said Travis Granger, CEO at RSVPify. “By introducing our MCP and Cue, we’re giving teams the power to plan, promote, and measure their events through simple, natural workflows that eliminate the busywork.”

Availability

Both Cue and the RSVPify MCP are only available to users on the RSVPify for Enterprise platform. The RSVPify MCP is available now via a custom connector, and will be live on the Anthropic Connector Marketplace later this fall.

About RSVPify

RSVPify is the event operations platform built for organizers who need simplicity, speed, and powerful automation across the entire event lifecycle. From online invitations and registration to ticketing and check-in, RSVPify handles everything from intimate gatherings to large-scale enterprise programs. Equipped with enterprise-grade security, robust branding controls, and bidirectional integrations, RSVPify is built to work the way modern event teams want to work. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois and trusted by over half of the Fortune 500. Learn more at rsvpify.com.

Latest wearable option supports K-12 safety efforts while helping any organization strengthen protection for workers and patrons

WESTERVILLE, Ohio, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Status Solutions, a leader in situational awareness and life safety technology, today announced the addition of the new Inovonics Duress Card to its portfolio of safety solutions, continuing a longstanding relationship between the two companies and their shared commitment to improving safety across the environments they serve.

While applicable across a variety of industries and use cases, the wearable Duress Card holds particular significance for K-12 schools, providing teachers and staff with a discreet and accessible way to call for help wherever they are throughout the school day.

“In a school emergency, being able to quickly signal that help is needed is only part of the equation. The right information also has to reach the right people at the right time,” said Amy Jeffs, President of Status Solutions. “The new Inovonics Duress Card gives teachers and staff a practical way to call for help wherever they are, while our situational awareness platform helps turn that signal into actionable information. It’s about giving schools the tools to better protect their students and staff, and that same principle applies anywhere people work, visit or receive care.”

Designed for everyday use, the Inovonics Duress Card combines a lightweight form factor with the proven wireless performance of the Inovonics EchoStream network. Key capabilities include the ability to activate up to three different alarm conditions from a single device, location and real-time tracking options, a durable waterproof enclosure, haptic vibration and LED activation confirmation, and a sealed battery with an estimated three-year life.

When integrated with Status Solutions’ situational awareness platform, a Duress Card activation can provide critical information to help the appropriate people understand what is happening and respond accordingly, regardless of the type of situation and who specifically needs to be alerted that some form of help is needed.

“Status Solutions and Inovonics have a longstanding relationship built around a shared focus on providing reliable solutions that help organizations create safer and more secure environments,” said Tom Chittenden, President of Inovonics. “The new Duress Card builds on that work by giving schools and other organizations a practical, easy-to-wear option for quickly calling for help when it matters most. We’re pleased to continue working with Status Solutions to bring dependable safety solutions to K-12 environments and organizations across a wide range of industries and to support the efforts of the Status Solutions Network through our partnership with them.”

Status Solutions and Inovonics have worked together for more than 20 years, combining Inovonics’ wireless infrastructure with Status Solutions’ extensive CTI competency and situational awareness capabilities to create safer and more secure outcomes for thousands of organizations across North America.

While K-12 is a key focus for the new Duress Card, the need to quickly signal for help extends well beyond the classroom. Across healthcare, senior living, hospitality and other environments, workers, caregivers, patrons and visitors can face situations where immediate assistance is needed. Paired with Status Solutions’ situational awareness platform, the Duress Card provides a way to signal the need for help, while monitoring, alerting and reporting capabilities help ensure the right information reaches the right people so they can respond appropriately. Whether in a classroom, workplace or care environment, the goal is the same: helping create safer environments for everyone who depends on them.

For 25 years, the company has developed situational awareness technology that connects disparate systems and transforms the information they generate into actionable alerts and insights, helping organizations get the right information to the right people at the right time. Its customized solutions support life safety, security monitoring, environmental awareness, mass notification and data analysis across education, senior living, healthcare, hospitality and other industries.
